I agree with everything everyone is saying.
But my underlying point is that it was only months, maybe a year ago, that common parlance about East Market was that it was the seventh circle of hell, replete with wig shops and homeless people with nothing for people to do and nowhere to go. Yadda yadda.
Further, if it were so much more desirable (which I agree is true), then why has it taken this long to develop?
Obviously, perception of the area has changed. And rather quickly.
This is the only point I'm making.
