The wall ties into planned future development. But it was built now so they wouldn’t have to tear down a temporary retaining wall later and install the stairway. But of course this was explained to me by my 13-year-old niece who knows it all. Her explanation sounds pretty accurate though.
sounds like you got a clever crew there Rambo!
Not really. She has insider information! :)
Has Wendell Wood ever developed anything that wasn’t gawd-awful ugly? My, what stunning use of asphalt!
Joni Mitchell comes to mind– and perhaps Dante’s “Paradise Lost”
Reality Check, news flash! Ugly pavement works. Compare your net worth to that of Wendell Wood. :)
Don’t be hating on a rich successful man!
