[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love the fact that the shelter will be across the street from the Ginormous Giant and the Cathedral Commons with its treacly upscale pretentiousness. "The Homeless Shelter at Cathedral Commons." LOL.[/quote] They did a nice job with it. Mixed apartments and shops and a couple of excellent restaurants. There is one nail salon that seems to be struggling a little. I'd like to see it succeed as I'm guessing some life savings have gone into it. Why do you feel a shelter is some sort of poetic justice? Do you think the Commons somehow hurt the poor? It seems to provide plenty of employment as well as an entrance for 2-3 street sense people to do their thing. I don't get the treacly upscale pretentiousness. Seems much like any other shopping/living development.[/quote]
