Jim Mora - baseball fan

I'm over 55 and that sounds attractive. I'd still go to Ted's though :)

You are probably the exception. 55 and over in Manfield/Storrs are generally considered the NIMBY population that do things like block the on campus FBS football stadium.

First of all, this won't be big enough to have much impact on the politics. Given land costs & wildly volatile cost of wood plus other key construction line items; then the Bank environment is going to require your For Sale attached product to be predominantly sold by loan closing; and a largely untested market ... I'm thinking no more than 48 units in one phase. If you do it as a rental product, you're going to scare EO Smith. They are going to need assurances you aren't loading their classrooms. Nimby will not bother me.

BTW. You are never going to get the on campus stadium nor the infrastructure necessary.

Why not? Other than the obvious fact that we already have a state paid for Stadium 30 minutes away. When you say infrastructure, do you mean roads? I see that as less of an issue than many here. I do recognize your expertise, so I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

(Though I don’t think it needs to be said, just to keep the thread from getting derailed too quickly I will acknowledge that a football stadium isn’t going to be built in Storrs for the forseeable future.)
