spinningpinwheel reports on the Prospect Heights Message Board: “I walked by the old tattoo place on Underhill between St. Johns & Sterling - the one several DH people looked at renting only to balk at the ridiculous rental price. Anyway, the gate was open and a couple of guys were working inside. Looked like a fresh coat of pastel paint had just gone up. Is that the future location of the fabled Underhill Spa?”

Indeed, Carnivore said he saw an older Asian woman taking down the “For Rent” sign: “She said that it was going to be a spa … once they finish that giant condo on St Johns and Plaza, I think that whole stretch of Unerhill is going to change dramatically, in terms of the commercial properties at least. There’s going to be a huge influx of relatively affluent people who are going to want to buy stuff, and I’m not sure Hood Hing (the bulletproof Chinese takeaway) is going to cut it alone. I bet the stretch between Sterling and Eastern Parkway on Underhill is going to be unrecognizable within 5 years.”
