re: Alexander's Market Opening Today in Baton Rouge

No. I had a set of prints because a friend of mine who was giving the owner a price asked me to look at some items because they were bidding on it. Apparently they did not get it and as I watched it being built the pace made me comment on that because I never saw anyone onsite and it took them about six months longer to build what is essentially a Pre engineered metal building than normal schedules would take.

I do very little work for GC's because I don't like being their finance guy. I'm not a GC either. They don't have enough margin for me to fool with.

I have no vendetta. I hope the place does well and as I said I made a quick lap through, bought a steak and was done. Looks like a grocery store to me. Black Angus New York Strip. $12.99 a pound and I can get that steak at most grocery stores in the area. Wine section looked nice and I'll go back and take my time going through it. Competition is good and I hope all close take notice.

But as I stated they have a very expensive piece of property and now an expensive building on it they I'd be willing to bet has a nice banknote. They better keep up with the game. I'm just speculating though like everyone else.
