saw a billboard for one on I-10 last weekend -- west of Live Oak - but the corporate website doesn't show a location yet

I've spoken plenty about this location and how a lot of people down here feel about it. A lot of new residents are excited, the old guard is angry about any development at all, and in the end it won't really matter because this place will make a ton of money anyway.
So, to the young people fighting in this movement for change, here is my charge: march in the streets, protest, run for school committee or city council or the state legislature. And win. - Ed Markey

^It will be packed. It's basically a grocery store/restaurant with a big gas station. It's the type of suburban development that is appropriate for that site.

^I believe, along with another location in SW Florida, they're both still in play.
