Damn, looks like the LDS Church has it down!

Steps to a sweet land deal: ---

1. Shut down downtown retail

2. Watch property values plummet as existing businesses die off

3. Buy downtown property at bargain-basement prices

Soon, you won't have to go to Temple Square. Temple Square will come to you.

Does this mean that, someday, all of downtown will be off-limits to gays? Not to mention nightclubs? And will those crazy-annoying born-again anti-Mormon protesters have to set up on every streetcorner in the downtown area?

Time will tell.
