HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 2015 looks to be a good year for our ‘hood. Lots of new home-owners moving into former rentals. Donut Hut has been re-imagined as Brew (see more below), the museum plans to open up their new exhibit area in the former Conklin Bros. flooring store, and the St. Rose Church will begin retrofitting the original 1901 stone church so it will be available to the community once again since it was shuttered in the late 1980’s. Remember, besides our neighborhood website, you can always connect with St. Rose Neighborhood residents through Nextdoor.com.

Brew (the former Donut Hut) is now open! Brew is a craft café offering specialty coffee and eventually local craft beer. They focus on local, sustainable, and highest quality goods coupled with experience in a warm and friendly environment. They support only local coffee roasters, bakers, and brewers. The St. Rose neighborhood now has a  gathering place for locals and by locals.
