If the East west connector happens what could be along and around it also what would you like to see along it if it goes in. Thoughts?

This is one that I think is long overdue. I think you will see Newcastle grow even faster and I wouldn't be surprised if they get as big as Mustang currently is in 10-15ish years.
This will also bring a ton commerce into Moore from the Newcastle area as well.

One thing that would be col to see is a new outlet mall or a new mall to replace sooner mall all together. similar to the one in Frisco along the Sam Rayburn Tollway and the Dallas North Tollway

This is likely where IKEA will be at a particular place.

about the IKEA I think a likely area if it comes to the south side is in Moore on that plot of land SW of the Mission Point Apartments plot is a little larger than the plot that the Frisco IKEA Sits on.
