I'm sorry but you are flatout wrong. What they are doing to that building is nothing less than ruining one of the most important buildings in NWA. What's next, renovating war eagle mill with energy efficient siding to make the building more economically feasible. Leaving anything up to Steve Mansfield to produce something for the community was the first mistake of many in this ever delayed project ( If you've seen any of the other "wonderful" properties he maintains.) This depot is the reason many of you live here today. This building is the very base from what todays NWA was built upon. Sorry if a few of us care when some cheap developers come in and don't have the financial means to properly re-develop such a meaningful part of our community. So Sorry but some of us actually give a sh*t about the little bit of history we have in these parts.

You might try www.terminella.com , It doesnt have much. When they do have something I bet this is where it will be.

That 500 acres is some of the most beautiful 500 acres in Northwest Arkansas. This will be a really nice development for that side of town. Hell, anyside town. Still worried about traffic over there though. Does the city really think an expansion of Rupple will be the solution for all their traffic problems?

I thought the same thing until I realized what building they were talking about. It is the mill on Prarie not 6th St. This building is hardly even noticeable. Still good for the Mill district but I was hoping they had sold the co-op structure. That is the big eye sore behind the battery company.

This is crazy! I have nothing against the hispanic population. The "contempt" that I have towards Rogers is in its planning and long term goals. How is it going to be any different than any other suburban area of a metropolitan area. I have nothing against the people. I just wish Rogers would embrace some sort of individuality. Create a Rogers, not another Plano, Germantown, or Hyland Park. It seems all Rogers is doing is taking in elements of other cities and plopping them down where they see fit. That is what I love about Fayetteville. Fayetteville is its own town with its own distinct character. But, please I hate even bringing the subject of race into this forum. It has alot to do with the urbanization of NWA but, not alot to do with what we are talking about.

Good one! I just honestly do not realize what you see in Rogers. You could not pay me to live there. I mean, I see Fayetteville and I see Rogers. They are like day and night.

Did anyone see the write up of Fayetteville in the New York Times. I wonder why they haven't had one on Rogers! http://travel2.nytimes.com/2006/04/21/trav...es/21hours.html
