The list sounds pretty impressive, almost surreal that all of those projects will pretty much be done by this time next year. Still find it hard to believe.... |

Or we just could just call you out for lying. Don't you know about the new supermarket going in the much talked about strip mall at Lafayette/Orleans?
Thanks for reminding us about everything, Remix. There's a strong chance I could be a resident within 10 months. It will be great to finally join in on all the change.

I'm still waiting for some major White-Collar Office developments. It creates more traffic and a higher demand for the further polishing of our downtown compared to everyone hiding in their luxury homes and hotels giving their money away.
However, I see that they placed their sorry streetside snowflakes in a wider area this year. |
