From Taft Wireback at the News & Record: All of the neighborhoods were approved after it became known that the loop had targeted a $300 million, concrete-and-asphalt bull’s-eye on these areas. All but two neighborhoods started after the state Department of Transportation filed official maps at the Guilford County Courthouse, defining the road’s 300-foot-wide corridor in highly [...] I hope Keith Brown is not upset that I didn’t support his recent post about TREBIC‘s political rally at Castle McCulloch. I’m tickled that the venue could be rented on a Thursday night. It’s a beautiful location. I can’t get terribly excited, because broader economic conditions will likely impact the members of TREBIC far [...] From Keith Brown at Triad Watch: Let’s hope our State Representatives will bring ethics from the state level to the local level into meaningful laws to disclose financial relationships like the one between Greensboro City Council Member Robbie Perkins and local Developer Roy Carroll. Also if Roy Carroll ever has a zoning case before the Greensboro [...] The Wife and I are still moving, but took a much needed break to attend our day jobs. I have no real nightmares to report. We agree that the pizza we had at Elizabeth’s last week was among the best we’d eaten. However, the Wife found the stench of Greensboro City Councilman [...] I’ve been trying to watch Keith Brown of Triad Watch and Greensboro Protest Petition go at it with City Councilman and soon to be Mayor, Robbie “Pave It” Perkins, but the sad video service the City’s using doesn’t seem to like my DSL. Maybe I’ll get a T1 so I can see it. I’ve been [...] Let us say goodbye to a misbegotten metaphor for the elected officials of Greensboro and Guilford County.

Perhaps this was partly [...] From Donald W. Patterson at the N&R: The City Council on Tuesday directed the city staff to study the feasibility of a new parking deck downtown. The center city already has four decks, but with more development on the horizon, more parking will be needed, council member Robbie Perkins said. “At some point, this community is going to [...] The Business Journal had its interview with DGI‘s Ed Wolverton about Blount Hunter‘s retail report online Friday and I commented then. Our sleepy local finally published their take on the report, today: His recommendations for closing the downtown spending gap included one that called for the first six blocks of South Elm to serve as [...] The Wife and I never made it downtown this weekend. She came home early yesterday, but I was in the middle of refilling the hot tub. She took a nap and later, we watched some movies. I understand a race and a great Panthers game also happened. Ever since we lived in caves, [...] The Wife and I were standing in a showroom at the Apparel Mart in Atlanta last Saturday when a recent victim of GSO downtown retail walked in. We renewed our acquaintance and she’s selling items from her home and on the internet. Still, she reels from the damage attempting a downtown store did [...] |
