And remember, Cheasapeake has always been so vague and tight-lipped about any of their larger plans that even the OKC Planning Commission threatened to withhold approvals.

CHK basically replied, "We don't have a bigger plan, but close 20 streets and let us demolish dozens of structures anyway".

And when pressed, they have either lied (sure Crescent is gone and so is the lunch counter but both will be replaced by Fall of 2012) or have completely evaded direct questions.


I am not aware of the City of NH denying a single application from Chesapeake. All they did was raise some concerns about some very ambitious and pretty vague plans, and those worries certainly seem more than justified given the fact there are grassy lots surrounding the plaza, and some have been there for almost 10 years.
