Question: Which large developer, power broker, and corporate welfare recipient publicly states the following about his latest project?
“Market research shows that Lancaster is under-stored and that significant revenues are being lost by consumers traveling out of town to shop at venues unavailable here. The retailers that would participate in this kind of center will complement the existing independent shops and cultural activities by adding to the comprehensiveness of the kinds of experiencesa vailable in Lancaster County.”
Answer: Dale High, of his Crossings project on his official Crossings website.
Of course, one might ask why a developer would build a shopping center in an area (Manheim Township) that is intended to draw shoppers out of a district (downtown Lancaster) where he is building another project.
And if any of you could interpret the second sentence in the quoted text above, I’d appreciate it. I guess I needed to take even more advanced literacy courses because that to me sounds like George Bush on his speech writer’s day off.
