I suppose all the scarecrows I’ve been seeing in Danville are meant to be lighthearted holiday displays but I find them frightening, particularly this “fire chief” recently spotted at the end of Hartz Ave.

Anyone who shops at Target in Walnut Creek has no doubt observed the progress of the Anton NoMa apartment complex where Fuddruckers used to be. I didn’t realize the name of this complex is Anton NoMa and was confused because I thought that was a person’s name, Mr. Anton Noma. Anyway, according to the online floor plan listings, a 608 square foot studio apartment starts from $2,795 and goes up from there, while a 2br, 2ba will set you back $4,235 or higher. According to the features page, there will be a pool and spa, rooftop deck, social lounge and more. I’m not sure about the parking situation. Is the convenience of being right near Target (and BART) make this a good deal?
