What's So Funny 'Bout Vertical Mixed Use Development
Lincoln Properties and Walmart hosted an open house last night. It was creepy. Even 7yo picked up on the creepy vibe and clung to me the whole time we were there.
The first thing that struck me was all the high-res renderings, maps and aerial photos of the design. I had to drive to a conference center on a Monday night between soccer practice and dinner to see these? Seriously. Post it online. Why in the world would I trust an organization that holds its cards so close to its chest?
Second, this open house was at least one year too late. How can you say you're accepting input when construction has already started? Gross.
It's a big box. It belongs on a highway. Ten years ago. A little limestone on the facade won't fix that.
