Bye, Bye, Fulton Mall!
How nice it was to see the once-mighty Fresno Bee just confirm what we reported here months ago — and what has been obvious to anyone who cared to walk what’s left of the Fulton Mall — that the project to re-open Fulton Street is, indeed, far behind schedule. There’s no crime in that —…

My, My! Those Trumps!
Gosh, how I hate to keep writing about Donald Trump. I mean, I’d much rather be discussing such things as Fresno’s increasing murder rate, Fresno’s hot weather, Fresno’s silly turning-the-Fulton-Mall-into-Fulton-Street compulsion — you know. something about Fresno.

Fresno’s Fulton Foolishness
The mess that is the Fulton Mall’s ongoing deconstruction — converting it back to a vehicle-welcoming Fulton Street — shows no sign of coming to an end. What makes that interesting is that, back in February, the Fresno Bee ran a piece under the headline, “Fresno’s painful remake of Fulton Street should be done in…

Trump: How Much Longer?
