What's the big deal with Coal Vines? I've never been there. We were going to go to the Cityplace location the other day until we saw that the reviews are pretty bad.

Less than 500 yards from my door in Lakewood. Would love for them to renovate that location. Been itching for an HEB since we moved here 10 years ago!

They desperately need to renovate that location. Either way this is good news.

quote:
That, they said, had the potential to turn White Rock Creek Trail into northeast Dallas' version of the Katy Trail. More than one person referenced the Katy Trail Ice House, and said the center had the opportunity to create two one on each side of the Alamo, which will be the largest one among the four that are either open or under construction in the area.

Said Rutherford, "This is that area's Katy Trail Ice House moment."

Now they need to connect Lake HIghlands Trail to White Rock Trail.

I'm not optimistic about that thing. What the heck are they going to put there that we don't already have?

Only thing I can think of would be a Hobby Lobby type store maybe? The developers don't seem to have much of a grasp on what they can do with it, and not being local they sure don't sound like they have much perspective on the area.

This came out of nowhere. DISD is eminent domain-ing Jakes, and surrounding properties for a school.

That's ****ing bull***** So many better options. DISD is gonna find out what it's like to piss off people who care.

Unbelievable. It's not any developers' fault, but it's just one more case of "one step forward, two steps back" for this community.

The response they got when they leveled section 8 housing in 5 points for the other 3 schools they built.

Seems like there's plenty more section 8 housing to be leveled before you start messing with cheese fries.

WRC bought the old payday loan joint next door, and are making it their corp headquarters/training facility. I wonder if they are going to expand to more retail locations.

It would make sense. They have 3, maybe 4, now. Very scalable once you have the process down. Also smart for them to buy that place as their customers park there anyway.
