Pointe Orlando is Ass Hut and Empty


If you stand at just the right spot near the Sunglass Hut shop at the empty, dead, ghostown-of-a-shopping-center Pointe Orlando development on I-Drive, you see Sunglass Hut turn into something more interesting. More interesting than the empty sidewalks and shops at least.

What is up with this shopping center? The only thing it has going for it is the collection of restaurants facing the street. The rest of it is dead. I asked a shop owner if it got busier on the weekends. He pointed outside his shop to the empty sidewalk and said "Thats as busy as it gets." I asked if his rent was cheap because of the low traffic. No.

The shopping center is absolutely lovely. No reason it should be so dead. We saved an eyeless cat, maybe we can save Pointe Orlando.
