I just had to pay another visit to Temecula to get a little more intel. Driving around I noticed that there is a big area at 79/Butterfield graded for a housing tract that is now just a huge eye sore/weed farm.

Heading out of Town, I guess it would be east on 79, there is just endless square miles for TV to expand for decades.

There is a brand spankin new condo complex on Margarita near 79 that has a huge ugly crooked bent up gate blocking the entrance with some sort of Foreclosed signage going on. Total depression era scene. If I took a photo and told you it was Detroit you’d beleive it. The weeds are gettin big, maybe they’ll eventually cover it.

Lots of new CR buildings with a pretty empty look about them on 79.

The Mall expansion is pretty cool. However I did notice this time around that half the store fronts on the expansion are empty. And what’s the deal with that smell? Has anyone else smelled Tiajuana type odors there? Walking around you’d about get bowled over by a waft of pungent sewer smell off and on. Now before TVMOD gets all riled up, let me assure you that I am not trying to disparage the mall, just curious about that smell.
