Here’s an intersection where a real estate developer could make enormous profits if white Democrats were sincere. Imagine the prestige of being able to tell people “I live at the corner of President Barack Obama Highway and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd.”
(Note that President Barack Obama Highway was formerly known as “Old Dixie Highway”; see this NYT story from 2020 and this ABC story about a renaming of the road farther south to “Harriet Tubman Highway”.)
This ideal location is in Riviera Beach, Florida, just a few steps from the water, and it is not currently overdeveloped:
The righteous occupants of the MLK&Obama Building will not be troubled by any neighbors who’ve voted for insurrection/treason. Biden won 96:3 in this neighborhood (source: nytimes 2020 election map):
Zillow says that a house near this corner is currently worth only about $200,000, so an enterprising developer could buy up quite a few lots and create a condo or apartment complex (“Progressive Gardens at MLK&Obama”? “Tower of Justice”?).
I am sorry this is out of topic, but I need to share this: The Barbie movie has been a biggest event since Jesus was born and it is way stupid. Movie theaters in Mexico had fights over people buying a cup with Barbie’s unhuman looks. The Barbie shit was “acaparada” and resold at a bigger price. Back in the 80s writers said that Barbie was a bad example for women. No woman has such long skinny legs, big boobs, light skin, and small waist. This a piece of American decadence and mexicants went crazy over it and payed 10 times the amount of a paper cup with the face of this weirdo.
Oops, I’ve found myself in the Fox News .com comment section.
Mike: Fighting against sexism is the hallmark of the Fox comment section!
They’re not showing Barbie here at Oshkosh (the aviation gathering)! And nobody is talking about it. Maybe if there were a lot of helicopter and jet scenes…
Fl*rida was a slave state, so it’s got extra reparations to make. Must be a blog commenter ghetto or uninsurable.
Also Florida taught much required skills to slaves to excel in their life.
Based on the names of the streets and the voting record, I’m going to guess that that’s in a mostly black neighborhood, so, unfortunately, no actual white progressives will be willing to live there. (Even if you build a nice apartment building.)
Sorry
If you really want to do this, find a white enclave with reasonable zoning (hah) and have the street names changed. (Maybe in Fort Lauderdale?)
“find a white enclave with reasonable zoning (hah) and have the street names changed.”
That happened in my conservative, heavy-military, 80% White community three years ago. After the first black was elected to city council, the remaining six members virtue signaled, and they renamed Airport Rd (which went directly to the airport) MLK Jr. Blvd.
