Midtown has proven that the trend towards high quality retail stores and restaurants can work here. Attract and recruit those kinds of businesses that Tuscaloosa does not currently have (Earth Fare, Red Robin, etc ) and encourage them to locate along the damaged commercial corridors of 15th Street and especially University Blvd. in Alberta. While we're at it, how about a Taco Casa store in Alberta? Or an 'Alberta Diner'? This area has been shamefully neglected by most of our city and business leaders for decades. Does the City have the vision or the will to revitalize this historic area at last? Or are they content to allow continued decline?
