Tough Times in Fruitvale's Transit Village

This week's cover story in the East Bay Express is about the commercial hiccups at the Fruitvale Village adjacent to Fruitvale BART (Oakland). Long article. Some cattiness from the current director of the Unity Council about some of the "irresponsible business owners" but mostly it's an interesting article about the challenges of having successful retail in a transit-oriented development.
