Like the old saying goes.....you can't please all of the people, all of the
time.  I'd like to see some photos when the lot is finished, just to see
if the "Feng-Shweyy"  (sp?!?!) of the design is "politically correct".

(and yes, I am being completely silly here.....)

In the news story all I saw was that they don't like the parking lot.  What exactly is it they don't like about it?  I have not been by it yet, but the few shots of it in the news didn't look bad to me.

Some people around here think that it's their right to have input to absolutely everything. Shoot they would even demand the right to determine what brand of toilet paper would be used in the Mayor's privy.

Sharon Letson, and others, don't like the look of the brick pillars and the lantern light on top of them. Personally I think it looks very nice, and does match the design of another parking lot just down the street from it.

Don't like it either, but then I don't like beer or rock N roll, or that crazy family on the TV whose gals all have big cabooses.
