Hi Charles,
I would kind of like to blog a story. If it's already been talked about on your site, just let me know.
I went with some children out to the Ponderosa on Rothesay Ave. here in Saint John yesterday , only to find the place all closed and boarded up. No signs or anything. Looks like they're gone for good.
This Ponderosa Steak House has been operating for decades out there! It always seemed packed everytime I took the kids there.
I was just wondering if anyone knows anything about this closure. A lot of young people were employed there. It must be hard for them .
Just sign me

The employees closed up and went home for the night. When they came in to work the next day, the locks were on the door and it was boaded up.
it may have looked busy, but compared with the days when they used to line up to get in,lately it was a dead issue.
RIP Ponderosa Saint John.
It's no wonder the place closed. It was becoming a real dump of place in the last few years. Dirty,food very poor and people who did not have the right commitment to run the place correctly. It's a shame,however Fred is still a very good location.
Keystone Kellys in Market Square was a nice to eat too and it is gone as well.
There one day, gone the next, no warning. No signs.
still nothing of Saint John's housing problem, but the closure of a restaurant gets top coverage as an issue to impact the poor?
