This thread…crime, parking, 
…!!!
I personally welcome the day when we get ‘Moore’ shopping things downtown but it STILL seems a looooong ways off for the density needed to have multiples of these stores in the area with the reality of market size / CRE, online shopping, etc…
We should really be honest ---- When folx on here gripe about North Hills / Fenton and the like ( *they also feel more mall than not to me) - I can understand the lament of those things not being downtown and understand the appeal of those places for a certain this or that while acknowledging they have a very different human scale ( drive to, THEN walk around). Hell, some of the same ‘crime / this F’n city is going to hell barkers’ hate North Hills for many of the (parking!!) access issues called out about DTR ( yes, they are ridiculous 
).
To bring it home for the thread - We need Moore residents downtown for more things, better density, which yields walkability then more amenities and Mooore vibrancy…It’s coming. Not fast enough.
