Urban Planning gone wrong

[m00n.livejournal.com]

While we are on the topic of community development, does anyone have an explanation for there now being a third convenience store in Teele Square within view of the other two?



Beyond the fact that I don't feel like these stores contribute much (if anything) to the community, I'm kind of wondering how it is that this neighborhood can even support three of them (four if you count the Indian market down the street that sells pretty much all the same stuff).

I don't mean to be such a community troll about these things, but I live in that neighborhood and it is starting to get a little depressing...

Yep, yep.

When I grabbed a menu, I surmised that it must cost pizza places around here a ton of extra money in typesetting charges to make any changes from the standard pizzeria menu, since they seem to all use the same template and just insert their name. :)

I think actually they leave a blank oval-shaped space where the local pizza place can just send the menu through the laser printer and print their name in the oval.

Although probably it's more like they just sell menus with all the usual pizza place names. :-)
