This is what I dont get. Why does everyone (almost everyone) measure
things by 'its better then it was' when there are obvious problems
with whats being done?
Seems that anything is accepted and saying that its bad or could be
better gets you flagged as not going along with the project. I
From what I have seen in other places the common thread is that they

Let's not forget that point that MM chose not to be good neighbors to the
Empress with
the 1st Ave pavilion also. They've pretty much destroyed the view of all the
