He must be one of those “sovereign citizen” types. Blimey!

I agree that coordination problems exist, but I do not agree that this is an example of one.

Haha. I guess some grumpy people would prefer another condo establishment? Another fro-yo/pizza/chain eatery strip? Another coffee place? An empty field where junk will collect? The pool facility will improve the appeal of the area and boost property values in the long run, and provide for better community sport programs for those of the younger generation.

To everyone looking forward to bringing their families here for a nice day at the pool – just wait until it becomes overrun by hoodrats. I guarantee that’s what’s going to happen to this place.

I get that local governments can/should provide some recreational facililties. 50 meter pool is a great example, but I think it’s the only example here. Arlington is going too far. I don’t think Artisphere offers anything that private business doesn’t already offer.

Can it double as a trolley roundhouse?
