Apologies if this was posted already, but I was out on my (semi-regular) early Sunday morning walk and noticed new signage on the construction fencing at the new AMLI project (and possible new Trader Joe's home) at the former Baby Kroger site. Looks like it'll be called Market Square Decatur. Kind of excited to see this project come out the ground and track its construction progress!
Went to see the fireworks on the square last night, and we decided to park in the Town Center deck, as I was told that was a great viewing spot. Well, they weren't wrong! It was a great experience at first...lots of other cars with people tailgating and dancing and throwing balls around. The fireworks were great and the atmosphere was fantastic. Then the show ended and it was time to go. WHY did we spend at least an hour trying to get out of that deck??? And I'm not exaggerating. We sat in line to exit without moving for nearly 40 minutes! The show ended at 9:30 and it was nearly 10:30 when we finally exited out to the street, lol. Hoo boy. Next year we will definitely be trying a different spot!
