I echo these sentiments for the most part. But at least its fitting to the local scene and the Bob Dylan brand doesn't seem to be overplayed anywhere. And as mentioned, it claims to be a huge infusion of money that will certainly draw an interest from Dylan and whiskey and art fans.
The challenge now is to actually make it happen. There have been too many ambitious announcements that sit empty or partially empty for months/years before falling into the hands of another ambitious developer. That all said, it would be awesome if carried out, and in good company with some pretty cool stuff in the making at this time in Nulu.
