A burrito is a burrito. And Taco Bell is actually better, and has a more interesting menu. Hopefully Equity One will be smart and add Taco Bell, although it would make more sense on River Road with a drive-thru.<br /><br />I thought we were talking about Westbard, not Somerset House - the renderings for Westbard were pedestrian retreads of every cookie cutter town center found elsewhere in the region. Even the sector plan calls for distinctive architecture that reflects the history, heritage and materials specific to the "Westbard" area. So Soviet style ain't gonna cut it.
