Everything's Smaller in Roanoke

The headline for one of the articles on Roanoke.com today is "Wishneff, Lea seek support for smaller downtown amphitheatre"

Take a look at the story HERE and when I get off tonight I'll make some comments.

***Update 7/12/07***

Well, I never got a chance last night to post more on this topic, but I think we can all agree that it seems like everything that is proposed in Roanoke gets smaller, or doesn't happen. Not all of this is the City, for instance the development on the corner of 419 and 220 is a private development. That area has now sat bare of trees for a couple years. The city, however, is most of the issue.

Remember the great ideas for Downtown Roanoke with balconies and a rail car driving around the city. Well that trolley system may still happen, but the rest of it is covering the cutting room floor.

I just wish somebody's great plan would go through with flying colors.
