So what happens on highway ROW when they come through and widen it?  I'm guessing that pushes back the frontage road some and would carve into the property?

I think it is going to be a massive Quik-Trip.

It could be a flagship store that also serves as a Visitor Center.

Im guessing the chicken restraunt is going to be taken out by the highway?

You could do some even bigger things with the Camelot land tho.  The other properties next door and the homes along Newport and 49th place would probably sell without much fuss.  Then you have about a block and a half by a block and a half to work with.

Luckily there is already a Walmart Neighborhood market just blocks to the north, otherwise, they'd be drooling all over this landmass.

As a roadside attraction it would be easy to find and see, and being so close to the Interstate it would attract a lot of attention.

Imagine the Indian statue welcoming people to a developed river area.



They could put a smoke shop in one foot and a liqur store in the other....

Well, my wife and I live at 50th and Quincy so we are quite close to the Camelot.  I'd like to see the chicken restaurant expand...  Become something of an "Incredible Pizza" with go carts and skee-ball... and all you can eat chicken.  mmmmmm.  Seriously, the visitor center idea sounds pretty sweet...  We don't need another bank, convenience store, nor coffee shop in the vicinity.  As long as I'm wishing, my vote would be for a World Market.  That's pending, of course, the legalization of wine sales in grocery stores.  Second to that, the Hampton Inn idea sounds good - anything to put that ugly Super 8 out of business.
