After undergoing an extensive remodel, downtown's beloved Urban Egg eatery reopened on Easter Sunday. Closed since Dec 4, 2023, for renovations, the eatery now features a modern and upscale open-concept design, a vision spearheaded by Founder, Randy Price. Approximately 70% of the restaurant's staff returned post-hiatus, with new members joining the team for a seamless reopening. The revamped space offers a more open and modern ambiance compared to its previous incarnation, shedding its former "darker feel." Proud of its historic building at 28B S. Tejon, dating back to 1911, built in Italian Renaissance style, Urban Egg invites locals to experience its new look and enjoy its renowned brunch offerings.

🏞️ Changes at Seven Falls Trail: What to Expect

The iconic Seven Falls trail at Broadmoor has reopened for the 2024 season, welcoming hikers and nature enthusiasts to explore its scenic beauty. Situated near North Cheyenne Cañon Park, the trail has undergone some changes this year. Notably, the tram service that previously transported visitors from the front gate to the trailhead has been discontinued. However, in its place, Broadmoor officials have announced plans to provide assistance to individuals with accessibility needs, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the trail experience.

Currently operating on weekdays, Seven Falls anticipates expanding its hours later in the year to accommodate more visitors.

🔥 Duplex Fire Blamed on Chicken Coop Heat Lamp

The Colorado Springs Fire Department (CSFD) determined that a fire on March 24 on Armdale Hts in the Banning Lewis Ranch neighborhood was ignited by a heat lamp in a chicken coop. The fire spread to two duplexes, prompting a response from over 60 CSFD personnel. Although no injuries were reported, six people, a cat, a dog, and several chickens were displaced. CSFD advises securing heat lamps in chicken coops to prevent similar incidents.

🚔 Victim Shot in Robbery, Suspect at Large

Around 7 AM Sunday morning, a man was shot during an attempted robbery near 500 South Circle Drive, according to CSPD. The victim was approached by a single suspect behind a local business, who demanded his wallet. Upon refusal, the victim sustained a single gunshot wound to the abdomen and transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. No suspects have been identified yet, CSPD's robbery unit is leading the ongoing investigation. The public is encouraged to contact CSPD with any information on this incident.
