Last one on Vine St. turn off the lights

If you read the business section of the Monday Orlando Sentinel, you may have seen a little tidbit that the Wilder Companies, developers of The Loop and Loop West, plan a third retail project in that area. We offer them great congratulations, as they have obviously found that their product and its location are in great demand.

We hope the plans for the Vine St. redevelopment are progressing just as quickly.

Wouldn't it be funny if in a couple of years there is an article about the Wilder Companies, fresh off their completion of The Loop-de-Loop project, announcing a new mixed use redevelopment of vacant and underused properties along the Vine St. corridor in Kissimmee? Work will reportedly begin as soon as negotiations are complete to relocate a school district property located in the middle of the vacant corridor.

With the traffic problems the way they are, they will have to. The more the expand the Loop, the more traffic will get worse, and the less people will come. Eventually it will look like 192 does now and won't those residents be happy. Then a company like Wilder will come in and do the same thing on 192 and draw the retail market back to it. It is not like they are really going to redevelop it. They will talk about it, but they will never do it.

I can't wait till the Strip Clubs come in... Then Kissimmee will really have the night life.

Maybe they can reopen that old S & M club that closed down on Dyer. The Loop would be perfect with all the traffic.
