what do you not understand?

The area around the Durham park was blighted and infested with run down old factories and tobacco warehouses.

Of course the construction and investments would force property values up on run down properties, many of which were abandoned.

Those are not found in the areas where the Wilmington facility will be built.

You refer to "...those of us who know how projects like this go..."

You've shown just how little about economics and finance you really know.

Not even a good try.
