Wow. Interesting that that's the piece they're putting on the Portland side of the line. I still hope the Italian place from DC they mention in some of their collateral is coming!

Well, if one believes them there's the entire Portland subreddit for starters...

Spirit formalizes its troubles... Spirit Airlines files for bankruptcy

Hobby is also a better choice if your actual destination is Galveston. Not that we made that choice on my one visit there, but still...

Considering that the peninsula is about 40% of the city population, based on Council districts, they make up c.14% out of that overall 16%.

From the linked article: Passive aggressive much?

That was me last April. It was freezing, and we were standing on the tarmac while we waited for our wheelchair user to be unloaded from an Embraer on a damp cold night! Do we know, are the gate desks for 12 and 14 going to be in the walkway (presumably part of the Budd buildings), or is there...

Rip it up and put in a peoplemover! /dream.

COS might handle about the same number of passengers as Portland, but the city is also home to the Air Force Academy, the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee, and the summer Olympic Training Center. Scheduled flights to Cancun might be flashy, but I bet that it'll handle a lot more Netjets, etc.

This will be even more convenient for cruise passengers once Brightline opens their Cocoa station; the train station is in Terminal C.

I'm going to be on it next week!

Understood, the job I was referring to was her perch on Appropriations. With Mitch McConnell stepping down as Republican leader, I don't know if his hopeful successors would be interested in keeping a Northeastern not-so-conservative in one of the most powerful spots in the country. (Sorry for...

So far as I'm aware, the Customs facility is still "off in the future," unless Grandma Susan can pull in some cash (assuming she keeps her job). The last time I drove all the way down to Jetport Blvd. and Westbrook St., nothing had happened at the hotel site. I have no idea on the others.

Of all places (WARNING: REALLY SUCKY ANNOYING WEBSITE), WCYY.com has a story complaining about the "monstrosity" that is the cold storage facility....

So next to Longhorn... nice! At the same time, it's a shame that it's taking one of the few parking lots that's still heavily used.

I did see an update to the Press Herald story that said that indeed, the new grill place will be part of the Phase 2 build we've been waiting for. Hopefully they get the application going soon after the medical place opens!

One thing I noticed in CIC that's I thought was cool, and it's really subtle: there are sculptural pendants hanging in the lobby, coming down from the cupola where the clock is. I believe they're intended to evoke the weights that would be there if it were a pendulum clock.

I saw an article recently that asserted that a big reason real estate prices are so high is that the industry successfully got itself exempted from most of the U.S. financial crimes reporting and Know Your Customer laws. So, if you have tens or hundreds of millions lying around from your...

I'm not sure Esposito's was a "heavy hitter"; it was a neighborhood place back when I was going to St. Pat's. It might have come up a bit when the kids took over and it became Espo's Trattoria, but comparatively speaking that didn't last long.

I've thought of the state of restaurant space at the Mall as a leading indicator for the economy for years. Right now, the former Chili's, On the Border, Macaroni Grill and even Pizza Plus are all vacant. They all may have external issues affecting their rentability. Chili's is in a hole next to...
