Miss Adams Diner reopens

By Ryan Hutton, North Adams Transcript

ADAMS -- Four months after Park Street's Miss Adams Diner was sold at auction to Steepleview Realty, the doors are open again and the kitchen is busy at the iconic eatery.

Business partners Ric Belair and Philomene Rivard have rented the space from Steepleview and opened for business on Monday. While there was little fanfare for the re-opening of the eatery, Belair said they were busy with customers almost all day.

"It started out slow, but as soon as people got out of bed -- it being a holiday -- and realized we were open, it started to pick up, and it was busy from then to closing." he said.

The pair originally tried to rent space for a restaurant on Ashland Street in North Adams, but the deal fell through not long before they were set to start operation. They found out the Miss Adams Diner was available the same day their original deal fell through.

    Another site upgrade

      Visitors will notice some subtle changes to the site since Monday night. Because the upgrade and redesign that I implemented last November didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped, I opted to start from scratch instead. Two months later, the site looks pretty solid so far, and had the added bonus of a new, easier-to-use system for our Riding Shotgun bloggers. 

      We hope that you can now use the site without any further technical issues. If you do, by all means, write me immediately and let This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
