You just don't care if Midtown ever gets a Panera Bread, do you?

Real question - if you're not a WSU student who can use the campus gym, but live in Midtown...where is your gym? YMCA downtown?

There's also a Powerhouse Gym in Highland Park.

Yeah, but that's a little bit of a hike.

Nonetheless, I've thought for a couple years that a gym would be really good for Midtown.

[laphoque]

Both hospitals have stuff too.

So what's a little hike? A workout is what you want, right?

A light-rail line that can get you quietly and environmentally friendly from the downtown YMCA to your house, apartment or condo. And I'm not joking.

Door-to-door with air conditioned stations at every stop. Oh, lets have each station offer a food court with exotic eateries and a few little artsy-fartsy boutiques.

Thanks! I didn't know DMC had a fitness center! The price seems a tad lower than HFH Fitness Works... which is very nice. Fitness works used to provide a slight discount if you worked for the city or DPS.

Well there is a form of Free exercise at WSU Matthai. It's called walking around it! You have the side walk around the building or the grassy mound along the sidewalk for those with bad knees who want to avoid the concrete!

Why this would push out all of the hookers, drug addicts, dregs, and other members of the lumpen proletariat!

I would disagree with the gas stations, what they do need are better owners who fight off the the people trying to hand you a line of B.S. while all you want to do is fill your tank and go.

Also known as the "Lump".... LOL!

Wonder where they would go. These folks are going to keep on living, the ones that dont will get replaced with new ones. They're there for a reason after all. They have no where else to go. They end up somewhere. Not like they will get sick of living on the street and get jobs at Quicken

Force them to a restricted area.

I guess that piece of toilet paper called the constitution (being a drug addict or "dreg" is not illegal) means nothing to you...

When dealing wi it addicts ,dealers,crooks, thieves, and all other scums, it doesn't mean anything to me.

Great!!! It's nice to know you're anti-America.

I'll take that into consideration when reading your subsequent posts.

They should all be herded like cattle and fenced in.
