I Have seen a lot of progress in the city over the past 19 years, while the West End and the South End or Lamar street, and then some new hotel by the old Pioneers Cemetery is to be built, the distance is too long to far from the Amercain Airlines Arena to the South of Lamar street,when you get down to it, that is alot of developement while Fair Park and deep Elm go into neglect and disrespect and funk.......why do we need a Mayor when we have 5 of them as developers or interlopers running the fair, or call it funked out Dallas,who to say, when the bill will come in around May of 2009, I will be living in Grapevine by then. until then Alexander Troup Historian.
