It's almost refreshing how unashamed they are. I hate it, obviously, but I kind of like it better than companies that say something dressed up in marketing speak but actually mean what this site just says outright.

If it misses the city's goals for social media engagement a certain number of months in a row, it can be turned back into a parking lot. I objected to this measure of "success" during the public meetings about it, but nobody cares about the old man in the back of the room.
