So what? Unless you want to invest in commercial space in SS, should you (and I mean the proverbial you, not YOU personally) have a say in how someone else (The Developer, who develops) uses their capital?

Spanish Springs, like the other squares, is NOT an amenity.

The Lofts have apparently been a success and the people living there aren't causing any problems for homeowners. Businesses make decisions on products and services. That's why there is a new BJ's club just down the road from Sam's Club. DId the area really NEED a new buying club, or do choices make people's lives better?

Are 14 parking spaces really going to be the demise of Spanish Springs?

If more people supported the businesses that are there, there wouldn't be enough vacant space to build apartments.

And as someone from NYC, this can't be your first exposure to mixed-use building. Look around next time you go back north.
