Fair enough, opponents of the development along Friendly Avenue and Hobbs Road say they aren’t against Trader Joe’s, they just don’t want it in their neighborhood.

W-S envied Greensboro’s downtown baseball stadium, so they had to build one of its own, similarly hoping development will take off. But now G’boro has a case of ‘Winston-Salem envy.’
