Jim Krumel: Lima may have a DAD-WOC-GOW-ABA-BAV-WOF in its future
Jim Krumel
Let’s see.
What is this new thing Lima City Council is being asked to approve? A “downtown outdoor refreshment area.” Or, DORA, for short.
It does sound better than calling it a “designated area downtown where one can go outside with a burger and brew and visit with old friends.” Or, DAD-WOC-GOW-ABA-BAV-WOF, for long.
Anyway, Lima’s thinking about getting one of those things.
So, what do you think?
Downtown Lima Inc. believes this could be the long-awaited magnet to lure people back to the heart of the city. It does sound like fun. And it sure beats the idea pitched way-back-when of building an indoor ice rink to attract the multitudes. Remember that one? If not, don’t worry. It’s best forgotten.
