This morning a BRO reader asked whether we had checked out the facade makeover at King Condrell’s on Delaware in The Kenmore Village, currently underway. The email prompted me to head over to see the colorful work, and to conduct a walkabout of the commercial neighborhood. I brought my dog along with me on the walk – he was very happy to find that one of the businesses was thoughtful enough to put out a water bowl on a front step. Sometimes it’s the little things that you remember the most.

We started our walk at the corner of Delaware and Kenmore Avenues.

Well, that was my takeaway from a September stroll through the village. I’m sure that I missed a few things along the way. It’s pretty neat to see this area doing so well. Kenmore is a desirable place to live partially due to this fantastic slice of village life.
