After searching for around two years, the owners of the destined-to-become-a-beloved-nationwide-franchise Voodoo Doughnut are about to open a second location that's bigger and better than the original on SW 3rd. An excerpt from WW Wire's sneak peek:

"The new Voodoo building, formerly home to an Arctic Circle burger joint, is surrounded by a massive swath of pavement. Shannon and Pogson will be reserving most of the surface for outdoor seating, recreational activities (like Wiffle ball and uphill badminton) and a buttload of bike parking—though 10 to 15 spaces will be open for cars. "Bike-in" movies will be shown on the blank wall on the north side of the building, and the former drive-through window is being converted to a DJ booth. Shannon is also installing a Quadphonic jukebox that spins vinyl."

It's set to open this Friday, the 31st with a parade from the original location to the new one at 6:45 PM. Further details can be found via the links posted above.
