I walk through that area fairly regularly and it seems to support plenty of shops selling totally discretionary merchandise for three times the price you would expect.  And an arcade is not a bad idea in this climate, as long as you've got the signage to let people know it is there.

Yeah, if something takes more than 15 seconds to read, it's obviously too long and i refuse to read it.  I, like you, learn a lot more that way.  I can't wait until all news is Twitterified.  Details are dumb.  Words are stupid.  And if it's something important, yet detailed and wordy, i'll just let someone else read it and tell me what to think.  Rock on, bro.

      <![CDATA[This "new kind of shopping experience" sounds very similar to an 'arcade', as they are known in England and Australia, and have been since the 19th century. Also found under different names in Europe, Asia, and pretty much everywhere else on the planet. So, yeah, not so "new" really. Apparently the developers are some of those loathsome people who think America is the only country that exists...<br>

(I'm also curious how having a hotel at one end is supposed to be a selling point to attract the locals needed for this to succeed)

      <![CDATA[Hey Leif - the campaign NOT to fluoridate was based on fear.  For being as non-religious as this town is, you would think Portland would at least be intelligent enough not to become terrified at the word "chemical".
