Hello,
And this is an example of what I said about the little
attention given to parking. Building a VC that does not provide
enough parking was a mistake, but with a little planning, that could
be overcome without having people park 5 miles away.
The overflow lot on Taneytown Road could be linked to the
visitor center through the old fantasy woods. Why not a tram
system from there and from the existing lots by the old visitor
center and the Neutra Architectural Memorial Center through the old
Fantasyland woods to the new VC? Tourist returning from the visitor
center could walk downtown to the shops and to the attractions there
rather being dumped off in a shopping mall 5 miles from the battle .
Rather than making decisions that have to fit around the plants to
remove the existing parking lots, a little more thought should be
given to using them rather than having a tourist park in a shopping
mall miles away.You is a vague pronoun. Avoid using it in formal writing.
Take Care
Dennis

Well, the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve
And then I saw the lots were full up to the verge
I know I'll never forget that horrible sight
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right
Won't come back from The Outlet Mall
