Blackbird Bakery is Open; Example of City Storefront Renovation Program

After completing their storefront renovation project with help from the City of Lakewood, Blackbird Bakery is now open. The completely remodeled building at 1391 Sloane Avenue is a welcome addition to the west end of Detroit Avenue and our community.

Tom and Adria Clark, the owners and operators, opened their artisan bakery earlier this month and their menu of hand made breads and pastries is a hit. The building has been completed reworked inside and out. The Clarks participated in the City's Commercial Property Revitalization program which offset some of the construction cost and helped to facilitate this high quality building rehabilitation. This kid friendly, family oriented establishment has plenty of parking, an outdoor seating area and a enough tables inside to host your next community meeting or a smaller coffee gathering.
