Hawks Stadium



The site of the proposed ball field, if all the GBAD hubbub is to be believed. 
There it is. Is it a good idea? I would love it. But does it pass the smell test? 
Doubt it. 
But what else could happen? All the car lot F*wads have already deserted. More apartments? Maybe. Real estate office /business park? God no. Retail banking is almost as odious as the casino model which is it's spiritual cousin.

Eight Feet

Eight more feet than the other bank tower. Whatever. I'm not unhappy that something is there, even if that something is not human scale.
It's a monument to an old paradigm. A signifier of unintended consequences.
Banks. The future will eat them for lunch. They are our pyramids. Future generations will look at these heaps in awe at our foolishness.

Right Of Way Row

Outside, the trains don't run much at all, much less on time. That time has gone for now. Waiting for a time when things might possibly get organized differently.
Thankfully, the branch line is largely intact, waiting to start up again.
Let's hope.
