I asked Hogan for an update on the retail/residential structure to be built west of the theater. Here is his response:

"I am a big fan of spring creek. On the site west of the theatre – just went through schematic approval for a 5 story retail/ residential building with canal frontage. Retail is the target for the bottom 2 levels. The national retail tenants still have concerns re downtown markets our size. However our first retail tenant, firefly, is off to a great start-sales exceeding projections. This helps in our recruitment of other retail. Randy"


I suppose 5 stories is better than the one level buildings where Sonic and Earls are. But, taller would still be nicer.
