I did notice there's been little, if any, statement on the Hilton Hotel project (next to the Flower Bldg). Is it possible to find an official status? Thanks for keeping us posted.

If that's true it's good news! As for the car dealers in the City - from a tax revenue perspective we'd probably be better off with other types of businesses in those spots. In fact, one reason the City pushed for the BJ's deal (instead of holding out for something more interesting) was because it prevented a Carmax from going in there. I will say that it seems like Don Beyer has been a good corporate citizen of the City (at least in terms of the number of things around town that he has sponsored).
