Dedicated to Empowering and Informing the Burlingame Community

It is really nice to see three or four painters applying a fresh coat of paint to our favorite Walgreens on Howard Ave. The painters are doing the white walls and the brown trim that were both in desperate need of a fresh face. And no, I don't think this means Walgreens is planning to be in there for another decade. It's just good corporate citizenship.

    Great to hear.

    Talking about our favorite part of Burlingame (!), there is a wonderful 1956 photo of the Wells Fargo building when it was the American Trust Company. The Peninsula Theatre sign is in the background and there is a Trust Company sign in the parking lot. Wonder what happened to the sign because it is a real gem?

    Seems as though Walgreens is being a good neighbor and attempting to improve the appearance of their store. Unlike Safeway, who is designing in exterior ugliness and internal customer impediments.

    Thank you, Walgreens, for being a good neighbor. I will do whatever I can do to spread your good name.
