A bridge and a display are nice, but are there shops popping up around it?
I was in Roseville,CA yeasterday. The east side of town is new and is like Niagara Fals Blvd, full of plazas, but the older part is bisected by the railroad (still active). The old buildings are are all restored and have shops on the first floor and apts above. I had to make a pit stop and had trouble findinga parking spot on a Sunday morning.
