This is my first time getting really furious about a development

They're going to demolish Village Corner?! One of the few honest, genuinely useful businesses in the campus area? I'm sure their idea of a quality-of-life enhancing, economically sustainable replacement for it will be another goddamn urban boutique or a faux-midscale fast food chain.

(strangely, the article does specify that Champion's party store will be returning)

VC is one of the few places I can go near campus that doesn't make me feel like I'm supposed to be a hipster-poseur 18 year-old trailing my parents' money out of my back pockets. And, Elizabeth points out, it's one of the key businesses that make it possible for students who live on central campus to survive without cars. But I guess that will be solved, with the three levels of underground parking that these green buildings will have.
