Sometime we'll have to visit out there.

Well, Norristown has been tearing down Theaters, Banks,department stores and Arcades and doing exactly what the lyrics refer to. Now is the time to bring back all of the above (except more banks - enough already)...build them and people will come to our County Seat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4189189510360665362.post-81233449036564320572007-08-27T13:46:00.000-07:002007-08-27T13:46:00.000-07:00Recently when traveling through Norristown I saw t...Recently when traveling through Norristown I saw that ugly site known as a parking garage. When asked why does Norristown need one, there are no businesses in town. I was told to support the new businesses coming. I find that humorous since you are putting the cart before the horse. What plans are being made to support that hugh expense?matches911https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035433723097282230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4189189510360665362.post-52816279084007074172007-08-24T15:48:00.000-07:002007-08-24T15:48:00.000-07:00The Poley family goes way, way back so if one of t...The Poley family goes way, way back so if one of the family members was kind enough to place a bench and maintain the area for quite a few years...why not have our street personnel bend a little and keep it clean and green.

I hope council will allow those residents who live nearby to ask for a few things from the studio who wants to move in. I can't imagine they ( the studio) would make it worse than what's there now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4189189510360665362.post-27768388242016498042007-08-23T10:58:00.000-07:002007-08-23T10:58:00.000-07:00Norristown [b]should[/b] study the proposed movie ...Norristown [b]should[/b] study the proposed movie studio. Maybe not for a year, but council should do more than drool all over itself at the prospect.<BR/><BR/>Issues that need to be resolved first include business hours, outdoor security lighting, noise, traffic, buffering (right now all that stands between that property and my backyard is a holey cyclone fence and a tree), landscaping, and the effects of construction (noise, dirt, etc).<BR/><BR/>What provisions are being made to find new homes -- within Norristown, of course -- for the existing businesses that are sure to be displaced?<BR/><BR/>There is no erring on the side of caution here. This project may -- or may not -- turn a quiet residential neighborhood into an uninhabitable mess. The powers that be in Norristown need to protect their residents first, while still accommodating development.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
