Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 2362255, member: 127"] That’s what bothers me. Too much is predicated on ‘what everyone else is doing’ , ‘urban fads’, rather than basing long term decisions on the unique situations and needs of an area. I’m old enough to have seen the open small strip mall, enclosing the former small strip mall, then the enclosed mega sized malls to only see the open strip malls to return. Just because everyone else is doing it, doesn’t make it the correct solution . What’s right for travelers, commuters is what should be done, regardless if it isn’t faddish. No one should be promoting an idea just because others are doing it or else we’re using the same process that gave us the ‘progressive elevated freeway’ resulting in 81 and 690 in the first place.
