The Mihevc/Miller/Artscape Development Wins but Can't Cover the Spread

It can however deliver 45 minutes of strident boilerplate enthusiasm on the subject of community,
faux subversion, heritage, aren't we just swell & lots of Greener than thou-n
ess.

It also features a trinity of government operatives: Bryant, Bennett & Mihevc,
receiving applause from their supplicants for delivering what the neighbourhood did not want.

OTOH, what the neighbourhood will get is an Eastern European megaproject where
full employment tractors move earth back and forth into perpetuity.


This site examines a peculiar history about innumeracy, the rapture & a government hijack of a public resource that was then given to a special coterie of friends. Needless to say, the public interest will not be served and much good money will still be hurled after bad as we contemplate the (ba-da-boom) Wychwood Car Barns imbroglio.

Say it ain't so, Joe.....

Compare the current Mihevc/Artscape 80% Park footprint to the 100% Park approved by the neighbourhood
