Either way you cut I think redoing Aun't Martha's completely is stupid. I feel its a waste of money upgrade what needs to be upgraded and leave the rest alone. If it absolutely has to be done than go with the Great America Tap and Eatery Fowl Ball and Strutters are stupid concepts. I still don't see why booze has to be all over the park along with Tv's can people really not live a day without tv?

I agree with Muck and redoing Aunt Martha's is proof of this!

Beer= Profits. I'm not alcoholic at all but as long as they offer dining-pass-food I don't care.

Public Hearing: LaDue Curran & Kuehn, LLC, representing T-Mobile, for the property located at 542 N. Rt. 21 LaDue Curran & Kuehn, LLC, representing T-Mobile, is seeking the following: a) Special Use Permit to allow the installation and operation of a new 150-foot tall monopole with antennas; b) Variance to allow an encroachment into the 150-foot setback from the west property line (Tollway); and c) Any other such relief as may be necessary to accommodate the applicant’s plan. The subject property is zoned C-5, Regional Recreation District, and is located at 542 N Route 21
I think the most likely location is between American Eagle and I-94 because it encroaches on the 150 ft setback with the tollway, but not the 50 ft setback with Washington St., and there is already a maintenance access from Washington St.

I know it sounds stupid but we could try complaining in the comment section on there website we might be able to at least get the great America tap and eatery theme.

We know they did surveys, and they came up with this name so the surveys must have come back good, why do you think some comments on a website will change their mind?
Although Strutters wasn't my personal choice for the replacement (I was rooting for Tap and Eatery myself), I don't think this will ruin Hometown Square or anything. It's not like they're just tearing the whole building out like the Gazebo in 2013 (Thank goodness we got it back). Hopefully they can integrate some elements of the Hometown Square theme into the restaurant like they did with JB's in Southwest Territory.
It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? (Sorry in advance for unnecessary commas and parenthesis every where)
SFGAm/SF, along with most companies in general it's 50/50. Somethings surveys are used to determine customer wants/needs and the rest of the time they have a good idea what they are going to do and just want to make sure it's not offensive to the masses.

I am glad to confirm that the blue train is indeed on the storage track on Eagle. I tried looking into RB station, but I couldn't see due to Eagle. But at least we only have 25 days left!
