I would be happy to see just about anything take the place of that part of the property. It’s absolutely depressing to look at.

I’m going to assume the portion on 17th terrace the old JCPenney location. However I’ve been wrong before.

Hopefully after they destroy most or all of it they at least keep the Metromover Omni station connection this neighborhood is actually named for..

They should take the opportunity to run it up into Wynwood while this demo and subsequent construction is going on there anyhow

Totally, if we could get the mover to expand at least to just 20th St, that would be a total game changer

You getting a free shortbus to your overpriced bar doesn’t merit it. Metrorail, Coastal Link stops, or ever a streetcar, have better capacity and will actually take cars off the road.

Should have been demolished twenty years ago in its entirely, and including the hotel today when you consider the Hyatt will be redeveloped.
