After and before, the transformation is complete. In just one year a page is turned on a neighborhood that now rivals that in any urban setting. What remains unknown is the effect that this physical face lift will have. New restaurants? A bookstore? The possibilities are many and varied - but all require one essential ingredient - people! Enough to weave the web of commerce -neighbors serving neighbors. At what point do we reach critical mass - and will we know it? I suspect it is a moving target - a continuum without an end, an equation without an answer, a process that becomes ever more complicated with the addition of every new business and resident. A fascinating pallet to which we add just a bit more color with our music school and our urban lofts.
