Ol' Begnnnings


I recently found this picture. Im not going to say how, its not that interesting. But what is interesting, to me anyway, is that once again - this is Roanoke. As a matter of fact, this IS Roanoke. Old sturdy stone base, a little weathered, but still climbing upwards. And with a fairly sizeable chunk of land that just needs some careful mangement, these stone steps could lead to something wonderful.

Could.

I am highly encouraged by the new Colonial Golf Course idea. Being from NY, we had a little thing called "Levittown". A vast, sprawling, unintelligently designed community which spawned hundredes of mini-suburbias across the nation. With the suggesting of a totally new neighborhood in Roanoke, the mind wonders. Will this be that C2C competitions fruits? Will the RRHA make this the next phase for the Villages at Lincon? Will this provide the balance for Roanoke County's multiple upper-middle to Ultra-first class? High and holy hell, what is up with Roanoke County handing land over to high high income developers?

Aint nothing wrong with a modular home. Manufactured homes too. Heck, Im still irked that the Victorians next to the Patrick Henry arent there anymore. Ooooh, victorian.
