I think it'll be another 5 years before we see a second proposal close to this size

If it's one thing I know is that there are people on this board that know when things will drop WAY before they drop.

Remember how long before Charlie West was announced that we knew a mystery project was coming to that intersection. We had NO clue what it was, but still, we knew
