His concerns about Lincoln Yards mirrors what many on this forum have said. He is spot on about City Front, which informs his concern about LY.

Now, he was wrong bout the Lucas Museum and other things issues where I disagree with him.
agreed.

i don't always agree with kamin, but i am always curious to read his opinions.
