Our local newspaper, which cannot stop fawning over bloated redevelopment projects, has done it again:

This seems to have been written with my earlier (unpublished) letter to the editor in front of the writer, for which I ought to be flattered.
Read it carefully. It is an admission of failure. Despite plans that have not borne fruit, they advocate plowing ahead (literally) by plowing up most of the existing parking on South Beach in hopes of what might be built two years from now.
We have friends with a business on the beach. Over the past two years they have lost money, big time. They are not likely to hold out for two more years.
Just because our city has planned to act like lunatics for several years does not mean that they must act like lunatics now.
