That said, and its 100% because I don't live there anymore, I do enjoy going back and seeing the evolution. Yeah its weird booking a Hampton Inn right across the street from where I once hung out, but seeing people out walking around or out walking their dogs feels nice.
I get both sides of it. If I were still down there I'm not sure how I'd feel. As an out of towner I enjoy visiting the Crossroads.
Hopefully they do it right but I totally get the feeling that it hasn't and won't end well for a lot of folks down there.

You talking about the place off of Walnut and 9th st? What used to be across from there?
