Quote:I totally agree.  When I moved here in 2001 I saw so much potential and couldn't believe that no one had developed a lot of the areas in town.  Khan definitively has a vision and the younger generation is really willing to support the urban core.  All good things for the city!
 

There have been several plans to develop the land, but most fell apart because of the downturn in the economy, or because they were never able to secure funding.  The last one was trying to use the Police & Firemen Pension Fund for the city by having them buy the land.  There was no way the city was going to sign off on that.

 

This deal is different because Khan has the resources to do this regardless.  It is that kind of vision and capability that will make him a tremendous asset to this city as a whole.  It makes Weaver's decision to sell to him seem almost brilliant.  Wayne didn't have the kind of resources to spark this kind of action in the city. 
Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
