Not directly related to d-town but is a major in-direct factor due to its economic importance:

Has anyone got any leads or rumors to where in Mobile county the Thyssen Krupp site would be? It is offically secret, but someone has to know. The news said 30k construction jobs (would ? that) and up to 3k full time jobs.


And has anyone noticed that European industry seems to absolutely love Alabama, and especially Mobile? If we have an economic development office somewhere in the EU, the person running the show deserves a better job than working with the government.


Also, any comments on what you would like the governor to spend the $3.6-4.7 billion on if Exxon's appeals fail? IMO, the state (cities too) have long enough shunned downtowns, I think its time to reinvest into such urban districts.
