I'd say the bigger question is, how many more hits can our region take? |
It's not like downtown is doing horrible but everything around us is doing great. I mean, they're vacant in Centerville and Beavercreek and other places and north of town at the same level we're vacant. So it's a regional problem, it's not just downtown. |
One of the strengths we're seeing in terms of our downtown community is growth in health care-related industry. |
Premier Health Partners continues to grow rapidly (downtown) and we hope to have more. |
The good news is that it is bringing a wonderful group of new employees downtown. And what we're seeing both in terms of regional and national trends is that the health care-related industries are growing and are expected to grow in the future. |
The number of jobs (in downtown) has remained flat for the past three years. |
We're very disappointed with the decision. While we are disappointed, we are not surprised. |
We've received nothing but positive feedback. Many downtown property owners outside the (transit corridor) area were asking for it to be extended into their neighborhoods. |
