I wish I lived in Florida, well sort of... All thats going on in Louisville is repaving part of the Interstate...

[aman]

No exciting projects here, no exciting projects take place in Australia except in the eastern states.

[Blaksmoke]

Well, there's the escalating murder rate. 142 murders in the city since the beginning of the year. 67 of them involving kids. I don't think that needs a picture.

There's also the ongoing problems with the alarming increase of racism and hate crimes, poverty, rapings, robberies, police brutality, homelessness, and traffic accidents. Again, you really don't need a visual.

There was a video of two cops beating the hell out of an unarmed guy with nightsticks on the daily news about four or five days ago. That pissed me off. The Philadelphia FoP gets away with murder. Literally.

Last spring break, there was a group of about two dozen drunken frat fuckheads who went around a black neighborhood, shattered shop windows, vandalized cars, pissed on the sides od house, etc. The police decided that boys will be boys and didn't do anything but arrest one person. Three weeks later, demonstrators from an all-black college marched near South Street to hold a peaceful protest on what had happened. No weapons of any kind. They were met by a squad of cops in full riot gear and were "repelled" with tear gas and rubber bullets.

We still have this idiot in office just because he's black.



And we still have this man on death row. Just because he's black.



On the upside, the Phillies just got a new ballpark. Too bad the Phillies suck and the food and concessions there cost more than what a quarter of the city makes in three days.

[Viper]

Ouch man.

Move down here, as you can see, we have plenty of new residences and that doesn't include suburban housing neighborhoods and apartment complexes going up like hands at a school for nerds.

[Blaksmoke]

I'd assume that they're all quite expensive. What with all the super strong hurricane-resistant material they're built of, right?

Or is that just glass....

[Shadow Voa]

Uh the only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the C.N Tower and the Skydome here in TOronto.

2 things, Much of it is expensive but there are plenty thats market rate and Jacksonville is as likey to get hit by a hurricane as Philly. It's statistically the least likey place on the East cost to be bit from Delaware on south.

It hasn't been hit for well over 100 years if not more.

Granted, they still abide by the Fl hurricane construction laws that enforce extra strengthening just in case.


ShadowVoa, those two are already built. All that I posted is either under construction or planned.

[WolfmanNCSU]

There are some 20 some projects, renovation, etc, plus a few more to start ground work around here. I just can't find any online pics, etc.

[Metal_head]

Does me thinking about fixing the sink count?

[nbakyfan15]

*random note*

I spent about an hour last week trying to find out who had that credit card signature, i wanted to show my brother because we were talking about how dumbasses always give there credit cards out of the internet and wonder why they have strangers use them... Now I've found the image

I see. When I think Florida, I think hurricane. Unless it's the Everglades, then I think gator.

No. His name is Mumia Abu-Jamal.

[Viper]

South Florida has hurricane disasters, we have hurricane parties.

[Hisham]

PMG, somebody from Toronto on the boards lol...

Anyways, I don't feel like searching for projects in Mississauga, but I do rememeber this one project in Brooklyn. My brother had to walk thru it every day to get to school...
