We fell in love with this place while putting the Eastside Guide together. Down on East Seventh, the eccentric building stands out from its fast food and taqueria-filled street like a misplaced little piece of 1950. Though the building was used most recently as a distribution plant for Shiner of Austin, the red Schiltz signs and Quonset-domed black tar roof have stayed in place through the years. Investors bought the place four years ago betting on the location's importance for the revitalization of East Seventh Street. The La Michoacana grocery store has recently opened in the western wing, but three spaces remain up for grabs. You too can set up shop beneath the sign of an era and taste gone by!
