Kappy's Subs is saved! The long-lived diner has come to a lease agreement with the property's owners — LJB Florida Properties LLC, run by James Bolen. No word on the length of the lease, but one interesting fact: Bolen, who paid more than $900,000 for the Kappy's property this month, also runs Bolen Properties LLC, which purchased the office building next door to Kappy's in 2021 for $2,350,000. What Bolen has in mind as a long-term plan for those two parcels only he knows, but I wouldn't bet against condos, apartments or a mixed-use retail complex.
