I am confused as well about all these different plans, the office tower, the hotel...seems like they don't know what the hell to do with Shitty Place. I maintain that they should just put a Children's Museum or Science Center in there and have it take up the entire space. The economy is getting worse every day, disposable income is almost a thing of the past for most people, especially around silver spring. So more retail is hysterical, considering the EPIC RETAIL FAILS as of late, I.E. Pier 1, Borders, Ritz Camera, Steve % Barry's, Bombay, several restaurants, and it goes on and on.Isayaah Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13885346130959795410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306615.post-42669599677231772402011-08-03T10:45:29.990-04:002011-08-03T10:45:29.990-04:00woody brosnan wrote,

If they're actually outlets (such as in Perryville, Hagerstown, Queen Anne, etc), the name has a chance. Otherwise, the City Place nicknames will stay.Terry in Silver Springhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14327980975408524384noreply@blogger.com
