Hi Darrin, I'd say our Main St is 3rd rather than 4th but-- they are both great streets with a lot going on. I just wish we had more of those. On a related note: What is going on with that "exclusive shopping centre" near "the Banks" out by Miworth? I can't imagine how it makes sense in an era when retail is facing serious challenges (to say the least). And-- it is just another element of car-centric sprawl. Thoughts?
A) I'll definitely defer to your professor-actual-knowledge more than my armchair opinion any day of the week and so 3rd makes a ton of sense. More of both would be a very welcome addition to downtown.
B) Oh boy - that's maybe a whole newsletter itself. That sign has been up for 2 years now - they did JUST clearcut that entire forest last week (sadly) so it might be the first sign of action. If I was a betting man, I'd say with a good degree of certainty that, if it does come to fruition, it will resemble the "Caribou Crossing" development out by the airport done by Troika: https://www.troikadevelopments.com/property-listings/caribou-crossing
As a reformed East Coaster I love the vibe of One Stop. Totally reminds me of the old school neighborhood barber shops I grew up with. Guys speaking a language I don't understand and a haircut by committee discussing my hair and my bad description of what I want.
It's a wholesome and inviting place, and they do a great job. ("Sookran" is Arabic for thank you!)
