Gainesville sux for small business. traffic is horrible, parking is worse (if possible). they try to force everyone into "earth-friendly" public transportation, which is anything but. I mean come on, where can you actually park in town to utilize the public transportation that's not constantly monitored by the predatory ROAM towing companies? Gainesville is pretty much a crap hole that I'm happy not constantly traveling to.
As far as BB goes, I've always heard that it was a great place, but have never had, mainly due to the difficult area to park at or near, and i've not really ever had any reason to do business in that part of town.
I wish them much success, but believe Gainesville will claim another small business in the name of progress.
you wanna talk about cramming a square peg in a round hole, look no further than Gainesville's economic plan.
