A few of them, like one of ours in Willow Glen, are undergoing their own renovations but they're getting some resistance from locals who want to preserve the "character" of the local community. This isn't unreasonable but downtowns aren't the destinations they once were given more modern megaplexes just a few miles away.

Being a tourist in your own city can be a great way to take a "mini-break" and not pay a lot of money. Sounds like a nice Saturday!
