Partial makeover for Springs eyesore

Posted on February 9, 2011 by Sonoma Valley Sun

Looking a bit more respectable these days is the former, long-empty Uncle Patty’s tavern on Boyes Blvd. at Highway 12.

The decrepit building, a key parcel in the area’s strategic redevelopment plan, was recently boarded up and painted by owner Karen Waikiki. The building has been called a deplorable, dangerous eyesore by the Springs Community Alliance.

The recent work, however, was a pleasant surprise, said John Haig of the Sonoma County Redevelopment Agency.
