What Do You Wish Were Here? 137 Shattuck Sq.

Near Center Street, this commercial unit across from Downtown Berkeley BART used to be a shoe and luggage repair business. What do you wish were here now?

For this column, Berkeley Patch features a vacant or abandoned building or lot and asks readers: "What do you wish were here?"

The idea was inspired by Candy Chang from New Orleans, who in 2010 created "I wish this was" stickers and placed thousands around the city for residents to fill in the blanks. Stickers can be bought online here
