May 8—Kendall Yards is gaining a new restaurant, a café and coffee roaster, and a retail store.
Liberty Lake-based Greenstone Corp. filed two building permits with the city of Spokane last week for renovations in the Flatiron Building to make way for Tamale Box and New Love Coffee at 1102 W. Summit Parkway.
The Tamale Box would occupy 548 square feet in Suite 101. New Love Coffee’s plans call for a 1,318-square-foot coffee shop and a 747-square-foot common area in Suite 102.
Greenstone Corp. also filed a third permit for a 975-square-foot retail space for The Great PNW at 1098 W. Summit Parkway.
The total valuation for all permits is $400,000, according to the applications.
Greenstone Corp. is the project contractor.
The Great PNW was founded by Joel Barbour in 2013 to express his love for the Pacific Northwest through bright, unique designs, some of which include mountains, trees and lakes.
The apparel company operates a retail store on the second floor of River Park Square at 808 W. Main Ave.
Enrique Mariscal founded Tamale Box in 2019. Tamale Box sells boxes of tamales made with the recipe of Mariscal’s mother, Candelaria, according to the company’s website.
Ike Bubna, a commercial leasing manager for Greenstone Corp., opened New Love Coffee, a café and coffee roasting company, in February in the River District Welcome Center, 21802 E. Indiana Ave., Suite 102.
Mariscal, of Tamale Box, and Barbour, of The Great PNW, did not respond to requests for comment.
Bubna told The Spokesman-Review last month New Love Coffee would be opening its second location in Kendall Yards later this year.
