Talton makes me want to scream. Yes, he's insightful at times, but that same drumbeat over and over and over again. Does he (and perhaps others) not see that so much has changed as a result of many dozens of projects. Yes the mega-projects that are city inspired are there, but there are also small projects, what he calls "organic" sprouting everywhere. From the refurbishing of the old Hanny's building, to new restaurants, art galleries and the like, it seems as though Talton beats that same drum regardless of the changes. Maybe he's frustrated with the pace (I am at times too), but all this negative energy is really a downer. I feel better now.
