Thank you for sharing the photo. A lot of history with SS town square, that was the first one, as we all know and in it's days was a real wow factor for those arriving to the TV's on day one!

Bob is great. So are the "hat people" (I think her name is Diana?) and Mark. Love our Spanish Springs regulars!

Nice picture. If I counted correctly there appears to be 81 parking spots on the square, give or take. Is the developer still trying to take 14 parking spots on the square for apartment parking? I have not heard much about that topic lately but if so, that will reduce the number of parking spots by 18%. It would also seem to really mess up the possibility for blocking off the square for certain activities such as the monthly cruise in.

This is an old complaint. Was clarified some time ago, parking would be off square.
So not to worry………
