The sign is up across the street: Tony’s Market opening early 2009.
It’s a sight for sore eyes at Westword, where we’ve been staring at the boarded-up broken glass at 950 Broadway and the remains of the Planned Parenthood sign, which was haphazardly removed sometime in July after the organization sold its longtime headquarters and moved out (to a larger facility near Stapleton).
Tony’s, a much-loved butcher, deli and market owned by the Rosacci family, has held court in south Denver and the southern suburbs for years.
But it recently announced it is heading uptown. Where?
To the Broadway building, of course, along with a bistro serving wine and beer (yay). The artist’s rendering above is a somewhat preliminary sketch for what the building is supposed to look like after renovations are complete.
