Tired of looking at old lumber yard sheds and such? No worries, you’ll get to look at this next.
I guess we were all wrong about what is going to happen at the old lumber yard location downtown;
Some of the existing sheds will be torn down then, and before it becomes anything else the site will become a construction equipment and supply staging area . . .
Wooooo Hooooo! Can I go play on the bulldozers at night? Maybe have an outdoor festival on one of the gravel piles? No longer will we have to worry about Sioux Falls ‘Leaking Money’ like councilor Jamison has warned us about (while wearing his brand new, freshly pressed AC/DC shirt while tearing up fake checks, a performance that should have honored him an Oscar, or at least a Mayor’s award for the arts).
City Council member Greg Jamison said he’s mindful of the spirited debate on where to build events and convention facilities, but he acknowledges “there’s a lot of value to putting it downtown.
“Wherever it goes, though, downtown or at the Arena, I would love to cut the ribbon on it as soon as we can. It’s a huge economic engine we’re missing out on.”
Couldn’t agree more Greg. Maybe you, your brother and Daddy Warbucks General Jamison could pool your money with other developers in town and build your own fricking Event Center. Huh? Instead raising taxes on little old ladies bread and milk? I would come to the ribbon cutting. I promise.
