It was amazing how traffic grew overnight, it seemed, in the southwestern part of Fort Wayne. And that was good oJe EJmhurst area! One day there were two cars waiting at the corner of Covington and Smith. The next day there was a line a mile long! Fort Wayne had been growing north and everybody KNEW what driving was like on that end of the city! All of a sudden, businesses, factories, and chain stores began cropping up out south, especially out Time Corners ' way. A new K-Mart, DeHaven Chevrolet ' s new main showcase, and Pizza Hut were a few. All along Covington, residential areas were rezoned for business. People ' s backyards were soon lined with six-foot fences or bushes to maintain some privacy. A new monstrous complex for Highway 14 was being fought bitterly by VJildwood residents. True, the new shops offered Tro ans more fobs but at what price? Downtown, though considered to be rapidly deteriorat- ing by a lot of people, still retained an aura of history and elegance. The Landing still attracted people, especially dur- ing the Three Rivers Festival. High rises stood out along the city ' s skyline to make interesting patterns. Fort Wayne was growing but still never lost its charm and charisma.
