RE company associated with Walk On's, Salsarita's buys old TJ Ribs building on Siegen Ln

This is sort of between Hooters and that new Campus Federal office building; not far from Jim's Firearms.

I can't think of another Walk On's in that part of town (but I could be wrong), so that's probably what it will be. That restaurant is spreading like Kudzu right now, and they all seem to be busy. They are curb stomping Buffalo Wild Wings in that sports bar/restaurant theme in more and more areas now.

I've never been to a Salsarita's though. Maybe that's what we are getting....Is that any good?

A Mississippi development company has purchased the Siegen Lane TJ Ribs property for $2.5 million and plans to bring a new restaurant to the location.

Park Street Holdings LLC, a corporation headed by Burke Moran, sold the property at 6330 Siegen Lane in a deal that was filed Wednesday with the East Baton Rouge Clerk of Court’s office. The buyer was SDP LA Baton Rouge 1 LLC of Oxford, Mississippi.

SDP has the same address as The Blackburn Group, and CEO David Blackburn is listed as a manager. According to its website, the Blackburn Group is made up of seven operating companies, in fields such as commercial development, residential development, construction and land mitigation. One of the companies is Streamline Development Partners, which has worked with a number of restaurant partners, including Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Salsarita’s Fresh Mexican Grill and Popeyes.
