I think you mean they're going with 8 lanes, despite the fact that everyone wants 6. The city is fuming over that now.
On the brighter side though, I just heard on WLOS that a major urban village project is planned for the river. Which river? They kept saying the French Broad, but showed footage of the Swannanoa, so I don't know. I figure that, like last time, it'll be in the paper in a few days.

It is no wonder that the white men and women in Greenville walk with a slow, dragging pride, as if they had taken up a challenge and intended to defy it without end." -- Rebecca West for The New Yorker, 1947
