Restaurant row
Councilman Tony Wilkins wants the city to consider creating a year round International Restaurant Row to promote existing and future restaurants on High Point Road in Greensboro.
Makes sense to me to recognize and support one of the good things already happening in GSO, improve our brand in the process. to do it in a way that addresses concerns raised by Luck Davidson in the article, is respectful of work already underway on this front and mindful of business owners in Cheap jordans other parts of the city.
cheap jordans for sale The re naming of High Point Road cheap jordans shoes was and is a branding effort. It was framed as such. No one is denying that. Perkins, Vaughan and even Wilkins called it branding. How is cheap nike shoes again re branding a portion of High Point Road again, at taxpayer expense any different? cheap jordans for sale
cheap jordans china All you and Councilman Wilkins are cheap Air max shoes advocating is defraying the private cost of advertising these private businesses onto the public. Which, by the way, hardly seems to fit Councilman Wilkins long standing political stance. cheap jordans china
cheap jordans online If the businesses along the strip wish to pool their resources and tell the world it a great place to come for dinner then have at it but they have no right to expect my family east Greensboro tax dollars to pay for that effort. Again, my community pays and does without so that more politically connected communities can thrive and as usual Ed Cone supports it. cheap jordans online
cheap jordans free shipping airjordanhot.com This is why myself and cheap jordans china much of Greensboro lost respect for you, Mr Cone. cheap jordans free shipping
I share a few random thoughts on the concept.
I familiar with the Fanta Center on W. Market but that location is not in close cheap jordans in china proximity to major highway exchanges. This would be a two mile strip, that a four minute drive, between I 40 and I 73.
cheap Air max shoes Branding would include informing drivers there are 38 restaurants within two miles. Yes there are several chains, but there are many authentic family owned ethnic restaurants within that 4 minute corridor. cheap Air max shoes
cheap air force It two minutes from the Coliseum. cheap air force
cheap jordans on sale I believe investment would be minimal. Banners, signs, etc. Coincide with the name change and the street revitalization. cheap jordans on sale
cheap jordans from china Ed, you are partially responsible for this idea. It was you who initiated my addiction to the tacos at Carniceria El Mercadito. So, you invested in the cheap jordans free shipping plan, lol. cheap jordans from china
cheap yeezys Councilman Wilkins, what about the fact that what cheap jordans from china you are advocating is defraying the private cost of advertising these private businesses onto the public? Should these costs not be carried by the very businesses that will profit from this advertising? cheap yeezys
And why should residents of east Greensboro, south Greensboro or north Greensboro be forced to pay for increasing profits to businesses in your district.
cheap nike shoes Perhaps a better plan would be yet another Business Improvement District whereas the businesses on your Restaurant Row pay a special tax for these special city services? Only this time, unlike the Downtown BID, leave cheap jordans on sale the rest of the city out of paying the bill. cheap nike shoes
Ed wrote: „I think Tony point is that the HPR, er, GCB corridor did cheap air force emerge organically, and now it could benefit from some self conciousness and marketing. If there not a critical mass there, the idea is a non starter.“
cheap jordans sale Critical mass would infer private business having the self conciousness and marketing expertise and where with all to invest private money into marketing their own row and now expecting taxpayers to foot the bill organically or not. And adding West Market Street into the plan only escalates the costs and puts more public monies in private pockets. cheap jordans sale
cheap jordans in china Why don we just cheap air jordan let the City of Greensboro pick up the cost of advertising and marketing every business on every street in Greensboro? The more you try to make it fair the worse the problem becomes. cheap jordans in cheap adidas china
cheap jordans shoes And then there the problem of Trademark infringement. How that call to Mayor Faulconer and Councilman Gloria go Mr Wilkins? cheap jordans shoes
Cheap jordans Critical mass has a precise meaning in nuclear physics but is less exact when applied metaphorically to restaurants. I simply mean a concentration of existing establishments dense enough to warrant recognition and promotion. Cheap jordans
cheap jordan sneakers I think Tony notion is worth exploring, and that he got the penny pincher cred to push it forward. If you think it a bad idea for the City to even discuss cheap jordan sneakers any sort of designation and promotion for one or more neighborhoods that are known for high concentrations of ethnic restaurants, we disagree for the first time, ever! cheap jordan sneakers
cheap adidas Ed, I received the traffic cheap yeezys count today for I 40 at High Point Road. 105,000 per day, which was higher than I expected. If the new I 73 count is similar we could tap into 200,000 cheap jordans on sale vehicles a day that don currently know they 4 minutes away from some of the best qua zzine around. cheap adidas
Thanks for the „penny pincher cred“ cred. SD appears to have performed this designation for less than cheap jordans online $3,000. That might be a little tight, lol. I thinking banners and highway signs.
This video from SD is interesting. (I continue to reference SD because they are the only city I found so far that has actually put this designation in place). Mentions „International Restaurant Row“ twice in the first 1:08. They might be a little fancier than us.“Chris, none of the restaurants you mentioned are in the discussed area.
cheap air jordan However, there is Ca Phe Pho Nui, Cafe Viet, Carraba Italian, El Mariachi, Ginza, I Love Pho, Kiha of Japan, La Milagrosa, Los Gordos, Mai Thao, Mi Lings, Olympus Grill, Sabor Latino Saigon Cuisine, Saigon Sandwiches, San Luis II, Van Loi II, Villa Del Mar, and several American family owned and of course, some chain restaurants. cheap air jordan
Chris, you actually helped to prove my point. You live here and didn realize the diversity in cuisine we have in one four minute stretch.
