What Would Make Swiss Avenue Even More Upscale? How About Another Gateway

The Swiss Avenue Historic District will have even more gateways like this one at Fitzhugh.

Oprah: “YOU GET A GATEWAY! AND YOU GET A GATEWAY! EVERYBODY GETS A GATEWAY!!!!”

OK, maybe it’s not like that, but Swiss Avenue sure is getting a lot more distinguished. According to David Myre of swissavenue.com, folks are building two additional gateways to the popular neighborhood, one at the north end and one in the center.

“Workers have nearly completed one at La Vista and Swiss (next to the post office) and more are planned for the Munger and Swiss,” Myre said.

I get it. I like to get dressed up sometimes, you know. I like to feel pretty. Who can fault Swiss Avenue for that?

In other news, you remember 5647 Swiss Ave. right? It was Candy’s GCB-edition Monday Morning Millionaire. Well, after two and a half years on the market, that lovely Swiss Avenue mansion is almost S-O-L-D (don’t want to say it out loud, or I might jinx it).

Any other amazing sales out there?
