- After 9 years, the project is STILL incomplete.
- They STILL close Cameron for part of the day almost daily.
- The site is STILL chaotic at the corner of Cameron and Charles.
- There STILL is no Starbucks (and I doubt there ever will be).
- There is STILL no real retail presence, and the two existing retail tenants rarely have customers.
- The first tower is STILL mostly empty. I look out my back window at night and see very few lights on. I conclude that the units are mostly empty (or inhabited by vampires)
- The site is STILL noisy all day from construction. The good news is that the guy who yaps into a loudspeaker all day seems to have disappeared about a month ago.


Why do people continue to complain about this project?  The answer is STILL, STILL, STILL!

I have shopped in the Kerala shop a couple of times. It is the only Indian grocery downtown, but it is rather small. The Region has a lot of better Indian grocery stores.

I would like to move into one of those buildings, but I am already paying too much rent.
