i am wondering. is it me, my odd take on the reality of things or maybe my 60's mindset
coming back to me now that i am getting older, perhaps gasp,only menopausal musings?
i'm serious here.
i can remember the grocery store downtown. people shopping before catching a bus back home after a day of work or school. older folks with a handled bag or two to take home for the week. i had a friend that would buy a small octopus on ice to take home each friday for her gram to cook up. so i was excited to hear of a grocery finally, finally coming to downtown.
then i saw the planned store, the grand unveiling.
is it me, or is this a place only for the well heeled, upper crust. you know, the ones that can afford to live in the condos and lofts planned or there already.
speaking of condos and lofts, hummm, no middle or lower middle digs planned as i see it.
so, i'm wondering, how can you have a vibrant, living breathing, INTERESTING city without including everyone. the way it used to me only better.if not
might as well just roll up those sidewalks at 11:30 p.m. those condo and loft dwellers should be safely locked inside. they'll never know if they live in the city or fox chapel unless they open the drapes.
is it me. is this deliberate? am i paranoid or what?
