Glad it looks nice..but I would buy my gas at a grass shack if it was cheaper.
I was talking to someone about these buildings this past weekend, and they explained it this way...that the land is not being used so pretty much anything can get zoned on these empty lots, or where vacant buildings are sitting. They suspect that the Transit Area development will still come one day. I guess something new and shiny is better than some of the vacant ugly buildings that use to be around Old Pineville Road.
I don't personally like all the sweepstakes businesses, but then again I guess it is better than an empty store front or closed business.
When I attended the transit area station plan meetings a few years ago I do remember them predicting some of the improvements could take 50 years to come. Long after most of us are gone.
