When one thinks of what is appropriate for development at a location like Lexington and University, their opinion often depends on the direction one looks at things from. �
Example: visualize yourself driving south on Lexington through Como Park, along the parkway passed another half mile of nice well kept houses and wide lawns and as you approach University Avenue and you see a three story building with a coffee shop in the first floor. - Fits right? �Or, imagine at that point you run into a massive Home Depot store. �Doesn't fit at all does it? � Or, take that same drive in your mind heading north from Summit Avenue with tree lined streets and large Victorian Homes and then you run into an Aldi Discount Foods. �Doesn't fit at all does it? � But, take that same trip along 94 cruising through traffic at 55 miles and hour and you pull off on the Lexington (meaningless) Avenue exit, passed the SA and take the first left into another Wall-Mart/Target/Cub that looks just like the one in Maple Plane. �Then you'd think, what are these locals whining about.
