Honestly, as much as I dislike some of these suburban planning monstrosities, it is great to see many malls adding density, housing that's walkable to places and providing a more urban option in more places.

How does the kool-aid taste?

Yes, I do feel some of the newer shopping areas are being developed with more density nearby in mind and there are also some interesting plans for residential around some older malls, such as Millwoods and Boonie Doon.

Highest and best use for more of your sites. Churches, outdated car dealerships and old malls are prime sites.

Both the restaurants in this prime location building have now closed. Tiffin kitchen and The Mash. I wasn't impressed with either to be honest and they were always empty. Too much competition in the area.

I still think the placement of this building is absolutely bizarre, but I welcome more housing in the city.

I find commerical areas with no housing bizzare. These so called power centers should be mixed with high density residential.

This should absolutely be the norm. And look how awesome it is to have so many amenities and groceries in walking distance. The Walmart parking lot is so underused that I get away with doing car stunts and parking across six stalls in the far end, so it could stand to use some residential density there.

This area is good for the residential right in the district. Meadows is also pretty good at having residential as well. Now if SEC could build in and around their power center that could be great.

I don't know if there is any land to do that at SEC sadly.
How is that apartment building coming along anyways at Currents? Haven't seen any updates and don't go that way much these days.

Bury the parking lots and build where they are, and all of a sudden you have A LOT of land at SEC
