So, we never got there because every time we looked at the menu, we were not pulled in...and it was dead almost every time we drove past.

I can't help but think it was bad marketing.

I hadn't seen that the lots have come down to $125k (from $200). I'd lose my mind were I one of the first buyers at $200k.

Arcadia properties have leveled out between $200-250k, and those almost...

I'm guessing there are still a lot of unsold lots if they're looking to lease/go seasonal. And $10k is almost double what I think most places are charging these days?

This was 1986. $50 was a significant amount of money for a 12-year-old.

Four years later, I would make something like $3.50/hr.
