This Land is Private Land
Windypundit has posted a cool photoblog on an Illinois strip mall. Worthwhile photos of a strip mall? Strangely, yes.
The mall itself is nothing remarkable; it really could be shopping area in any suburb in any state. You've got your mobile-phone provider, nail shop, pancake house, gym, and even a clothing outlet.
What makes this mall special is that it's in Arlington Heights, IL. And the city is trying to use eminent domain to force the owner to sell. And the owner's not selling.
