LOL...

so instead of making a fancy "interactive chart", why don't they just say: "we plan to do absolutely nothing with it when it closes. Sorry for wasting ur time."

but seriously, I want to know if Hampton will ever get with 20 century in city development. i've lived in Hampton for almost 20 years now and really, the only thing that has changed, is the loss of several businesses and that's sad u know.

Don't kid yourself...

It is in Hampton, no one goes to Hampton. That’s a fact. The only way to make Hampton desirable is to bull-doze it all down and start again.

$4 mil are you kidding

$4 mil to maintain a facility that is below the 100 yr flood plain? That facility needs craftsmen to keep up the maintenance, and they aren't cheep. It would be sad to see the fort fall apart because there were not enough funds to maintain it. Someone needs to recalculate those numbers.
