Dessert and Coffee Shop update

A reader pointed this out to me in yesterday's St. Pete Times City Times:

SEMINOLE HEIGHTS SWEETENING: The long anticipated dessert and coffee shop next to Forever Beautiful Salon and Day Spa, 5135 N Florida Ave., is nearing completion.

The shop has been on the drawing board since 2000 when Elizabeth Graham bought a 1908 bungalow on nearby Hillsborough Avenue and its accompanying garage apartment.
She moved the buildings to their current site, turned the house into Forever Beautiful and devised plans to convert the garage apartment into a dessert and coffee shop.

After a series of delays, construction has finally begun.

Graham won't comment yet, but if appearances count for anything, the shop might be done before Starbucks opens early next year at Hillsborough and Central avenues.

Drive by and see the progress for yourself. Florida Avenue South Of Hillsborough, near Faedo's Bakery
