It&#39;s loud, it&#39;s crowded with people and cars, and it&#39;s not exactly scenic - to the north you have the station and the rest of downtown, and to the south you can see the Sound waaay beyond the rundown South End.<br /><br />2: The neighborhood south of the tracks is a long way from being desirable. Unless the developer and their initial tenants/buyers are real pioneers, it&#39;ll be a tough sell.<br /><br />3: Its main selling point would be that it&#39;s right next to the train station, however, that also means it&#39;s kind of a hike from downtown, which is the heart of the action here in the C-T-Dub. If only the train station were right near downtown!JRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08021954676706868948noreply@blogger.com
