What a shame, I loved our little neighborhood restaurant.

I agree, I loved El Santiago, so casual and informal. What a shame.

I agree, what a shame. Loved to stop by and have an ice cold beer after playing nine in the hot summer sun.

I can't understand how if this is a "resident owned" facility why residents/owners had no say in the building's use. Wasn't this building part of the package that was sold to residents at a greatly inflated price? Isn't this taxation without representation?

Nope, the developer owns all the commercial locations including this one. He can make it a restaurant or make it a porn shop. It's his property.

Only the pools and rec, centers were sold to the central districts.

I don't have a problem with what he does with it. But others have lamented about good memories there over the years. Me too. I always wanted that upside-down Christmas tree that was there from Day 1.
