After a while it starts eating away at me and making me depressed.

This may actually be a reason to invest elsewhere- contractors in the more economically depressed areas, or with less of a nuclear housing boom, are far more likely to keep their commitments and actually do the work on time.

That market has always been extremely depressed, that is prolly why your lot has not sold.

That puts a glut of inventory on the market even with no new office space developed and depresses rents per sq ft.For retail if a destination type tenant most will need visibility and a store front to operate.No asset class is without it's pluses and minuses.

My husband I recently lost our newborn baby boy in February due to a chromosomal disorder and this really changed my perspective on life.  

It was much more realistic a few years ago when prices were depressed.

MY BEGINNINGAs you know, the FX took a toll on my mom, she went into depression.

To me, it's just human nature for folks to rebel when faced with the possibility that we may need to learn something, but we feel we "know it all" or know enough to not need anyone else's success story to rub in our own faces that in our lives which has been less than we'd hoped for or expected.I'm sure you've seen this cycle somewhere before: anger, denial, depression, acceptance.

I think it will have a large influence on their housing choices similar to the way people who came of age in the Depression were affected.

Because of the already depressed economy nobody moves into the old strip center so it becomes a huge eye sore.Economic studies show that the people of Frayser still spend the money, but the percentages of people that spend dining dollars, food dollars and frivolous spending dollars outside of 38127 are staggering.
