Anyone that lives or travels by 5047 Forest Hill Ave knows when the folks at Blanchard’s are hard at work roasting their coffee. We have been lucky enough to have access to truly locally roasted coffee. It doesn’t get more local than a few blocks. I heard rumors a little bit ago that…

Looking forward to having Blanchard’s here in Manchester—one block East of the Corrugated Box Building! 

Work has begun on the new digs for Tumblr in RVA in the Corrugated Box Building.  

Although Chef Andy Howell has asked us to keep mum, Camden’s Dogtown Market is open and we, here in the Corrugated Box Building are, of course, delighted. For all the details and the early reviews, check out this mention from Hills and Heights, and be sure to “like” Camden’s on Facebook.

We’re excited about the delicious lunch and dinner offerings, daily specials, groceries and beer and wine. See you there!
