Someone whose insights/opinions/info I trust relayed that Odom had put in that road somewhat speculatively because there was talk/negotiation/rumblings (pick your favorite word) that a hotel wanted to land on that side of I-44, but lamented the lack of service road access....hence, in went the road. The hotel, quite obviously, never materialized.

I wish we could get *one* nice, pleasant, sit-down, non-fast-food restaurant option in that area. I don't even mind a chain...Cheddars would be fine with me. I just get tired of a Taco Something going on nearly every empty ten-square-foot parcel of land that pops open.

We've got Victoria's Pasta Shop just a bit farther east on SW 104th, but I've never been a fan; and Arby's is going in at the corner (oh, joy). There's a Pub W going in a bit farther south on May, so that's a hopeful sign...
