Ch. 8 UER's abandoned FW development

Unfortunately, there aren't any actual abandoned buildings (the only building constructed is occupied). But they got good pix of a development that was planned, laid out, and then abandoned six years ago.

"The idea for Leonard Oaks was to create an area like Dallas' West Village or Southlake's Town Center. There were plans for townhouses, apartment, shops and restaurants. Investors envisioned a pedestrian friendly place near the Naval Air Station Fort Worth, Joint Reserve Base. Six years after plans began the area looks like an eerie ghost town and investors are suing developers. WFAA.com Mobile Journalist, MoJo, Aaron Chimbel, provides this slideshow."

J'ai toujours fait une prière à Dieu, qui est fort courte.
La voici: "Mon Dieu, rendez nos ennemis bien ridicules!"
Dieu m'a exaucé.

I used to live right across the street from it. Back before it was Wal-Mart. It was a huge stink in the little town. It's actually in Westworth Village, and lots of people didnt want it built to begin with. Turns out they were right. Theone building looks ok, but is out of place. They should move it across the street with the other duplexes.

...They will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines!
