Any thoughts about the coming Concord Casino near Loudon and Sheep Davis Road?

Agreed, the city really let down residents. Empty malls make it even worse.

I think the mall being in its current state is just a sign of the times. Has happened to many areas with low-moderate population density. The movie theatre over there is apparently shutting down soon too.

The mall failed due to greed by the property owners who used it as a tax loss write-off.

Didn't the city council approve the site recently for a 45,000 square foot building with a hotel next to it?

You are right. I think they have a final review and approval next month.

Putting it right there would F up traffic into Concord from points east. Great

The site is located by Chapell Tractors.

If property taxes fall in relation to casino profits then I am for it.

Whatever they say will happen in regards to that will be a lie.

I think that area should just stay empty as is, a lot of birds like it. Unfortunately they don't pay rent for it.
Maybe use that empty mall right down the road..?

I'm sure it will be a tasteless shithole like the owner's current casino on main street.
