Keep 10-plexes at strip malls
Mon, 05/10/2010
Burien is getting busier since Southcenter's expansion. Who wants to go into that big over-crowded mess?
We need to keep Burien as the quaint hometown alternative to Southcenter.
Let the big retailers and theater complexes stay there. I believe that we are seeing business in Burien picking up BECAUSE of the growing Southcenter mess.
The economy is turning around and Burien has a unique opportunity for a very strong future -- to be the only "10-PLEX-FREE COMMUNITY" in south King County.
Kudos to Burien's great new one-of-a-kind restaurants and venues that are keeping the streets alive on weekends with people from Burien and neighboring communities. We want MORE. How about a new live theater stage, more music and art in the area?
If you want a 10-plex-movie screen, go to Federal Way, Southcenter, Kent, Renton or Seattle.
Keep Burien UNIQUE--don't blow it now, City Council!
