Question: How Has CDA Changed — for the Worse?

Full post here

I wrote something in my previous posting about how I hoped some things would not change around these parts. Even though I am leaving Coeur d'Alene soon, it is a beautiful place. Back in the '60s and '70s, I had such a fun time growing up here. This city was everything to me; really, it's been the only place for me for a lot of reasons. And it may be again in the future, but that's something I don't know yet. And, this summer, I again spent a lot of time down at City Park; it's just about the only place one can go without getting driven off beaches, it's one of the few places where you really can't stumble onto someone's private property. As you can tell, I really hate the whole Sanders' Beach situation, where the property owners are trying to take over the beach. But, that's out of my hands, and quite possibly, out of everyone elses' hands as well -- CodaDave/Atmospheric Ruminations.

Question: Have you been here long enough to have a regret re: something that has been lost as a result of "progress"?
