Roe? Oh No!

Three O’Clock In the Morning was right. In April I mocked him for wrting rather hysterically about the retail redevelopment in Roeland Park. My delight at the expanded chorizo selection in the spiffy new Price Chopper had clouded my judgement. I’ve been eyeing this retail satellite strip suspiciously for several weeks, hoping that I’m failing to visualize its ultimate form. It’s clear now, though, that these businesses will permanently face away from Roe, Roeland Park’s main drag. It's an urban planner's nightmare.
