Electricity On?

  • Post author:

Readers may remember that Electric Beach tanning salon on 45th St closed in July amidst a blaze of typos. Commenters, unsympathetic to their pale skinned neighbors, chortled with schadenfreude.

Well, wipe off those smirks, dear readers. An anonymous tipster reports that he heard from the owner of a chain of tanning salons that they’re planning to open a store in the space recently vacated by Electric Beach. “He didn’t say when but I saw him & a couple other guys there yesterday donning dust masks looking busy,” added our tipster.

Sounds like this time, it’ll be Kappa Kappa Gamma that does the chortling.

I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.
