Random Pictures From April 21st
This place is growing like crazy. I bet the people who got in on real estate around the area before hand, are feeling pretty good about their investment now.
As much as I loathe senseles suburban SPRAWL, I can't help but feel happiness for the Northside. They really needed this. I guess I can complain a million times over how they COULD HAVE done this, or COULD HAVE done that, but bottom line, the Northside needed the retail, housing, and jobs. I guess I will give the developers a free pass this ONE time... huh?
Well, on with the pics. I snapped a few pics on my way there of the Dames Point Bridge, and our new Mitsui port site.

The northside will only grow more once the new port terminals start operating. I wonder how long it will be before they start 6-laning 9A from the dames point bridge to 95.
Great collection of images. With Shands also preparing to build a new campus across the street and the airport nearby, this area will become a great spot for a future urban commuter rail stop.
