Corridor Quotations

Back on Nov. 23, 1963, I sailed into Manhattan Harbor onboard the Queen Mary and landed with no job and contacts and just $135 in my pocket. My first lodging was in a rundown hotel for $27 a week with the bathroom down the end of a corridor of beds.

Germany can generally only pay if the Corridor and Upper Silesia will be handed back to Germany from Polish possession, and if besides somewhere on the earth colonial territory will be made available to Germany.

There are four main areas of concern where manatees tend to live. The northeast or upper St. Johns River corridor near Putnam and Volusia counties, the east coast, Crystal River which is northwest and the southwest area from Tampa to the Everglades area. Two of those areas, the two small ones, Crystal River and the upper St. Johns River, are doing well in those regions.

When you consider there are only 119 I-A colleges, and we might have five or six sign with those schools this year, that's pretty impressive for just a small corridor of the country.

Many residents along the Highway 50 corridor travel to those areas for restaurants, shopping and other entertainment options, so we felt it would be valuable to include the necessary white page information for them.

Much of what passes for news in Washington is very hurried leaks from officials in power, whether in a corridor conversation or a thirty second phone call. And the media is far too credulous of accepting the word of Washington officialdom when it comes to self-serving leaks or publishing self-serving information.

If we put contra-flow in place, then we shut down that corridor very quickly.

But, after all, one cannot, at sixty-two, look back down the corridor of one's life and not have some doubts about the journey one has made. The doors which one opened are now all closed. The doors one did not dare open remain shut. The corridor is dark; only ahead is lighter. So one turns and proceeds in that direction. To go back is madness. To turn left or right, at this stage, is both exhausting and dangerous.

Baton Rouge, New Orleans and southern Louisiana are the largest shipping complex in the world, and the U.S. is extremely reliant on shipping in the Mississippi River corridor and Gulfport, Miss.

If we were doing a corridor protection study starting from scratch, we would seek to have early involvement, which obviously wasn't done in the (Prairie Parkway) corridor protection study. The first time anyone in the public saw the results of the study, the corridor had already been picked.

Guatemala's ornate presidential palace, once a terrifying fortress whose every corridor was patrolled by heavily armed soldiers in berets and camouflage uniforms, is now a normal public building where ordinary citizens enter without fear.

Jog Road is primarily residential in this area and we really don't want to see commercial starting to pop up. There's no need to open up this corridor with commercial.

I think it's kind of win-win deal for Ames and Wal-Mart. It's a nice corridor there, and I think we're going to be a nice addition to the landscape there.

It has all the makings of a new office corridor for the metropolitan area. I-55 could be what (Highway) 40 has been on the west side of the region.

Our proximity to (Route) 55 is not as great, but we feel the High Street corridor is going to be more heavily traveled than it is now.

Our long term goal to develop local offices in strategic points around the country. The Northeast Corridor is home to many well established technology and manufacturing companies and our unique position as one of the only technology specific design and interactive agencies makes us a terrific match for that area.

That area could anchor a very important development corridor stretching from Indianapolis Boulevard to Five Points.

We've targeted 20 locations we feel we need to grow in. We're looking at the Brighton-Fort Lupton area. The whole I-25 corridor is a definite must. We'll be expanding in Louisville and Lafayette. I'm also excited about expanding elsewhere in Weld County.

We're always looking for business and communities along the Dulles corridor to partner with or to provide donations to us.

We pulled toilet rooms out towards the hallway. That puts the patient zone further away from the corridor to cut down on noise, and then when janitors come to clean the rest rooms they don't have to come all the way into the room and it's less disturbing to patients.

Typically, people who are farther away from the corridor are going to see it as an enhancement because it will help them get to and from work. The people who are going to be closer to it, probably won't like it as much.

Traditionally, the Northeast corridor is the most heavily traveled route in the country.

We like the idea of 66th Street since it is the main corridor to the (Tyrone Square) mall. It is more visibility. The location was appropriate and available,

Some didn't get the job they wanted. Some got a job offered to them, but it wasn't within the driving distance they wanted to.

During the game you will be able to see into the ballpark from the sidewalk, but there is a corridor where fans with tickets may be standing in, so we can't guarantee what the view will be.

You've got to take into account the studies were done before 9/11, before the dot-com industry went bust. There are fewer employees now in the U.S. 36 corridor than 2001, so there are a whole host of reasons to consider.

This is a significant corridor for commuter and freight traffic. We're certain there will be a need for enhanced transit there over the next five years. We need to be assured strategies are in place to meet the growing need as it appears less and less likely there will be a monorail serving this corridor.

This event marks a milestone in the development of airport property. Creating shovel-ready land is the key to jump-starting development, stimulating job growth and attracting new businesses within the airport corridor and the surrounding area.

It's a problem for the city -- the most profitable, tax-raising property is being taken away. We need a plan in the city to make the corridor better than before.

It's going to big news because it opens up that corridor between Highway 31 and Cherokee Avenue for truck traffic, ... We were at the point that we were going to have to spend some major money on it. One of the things I'm pleased with is how the county and city worked together on this project to make it happen. Everybody's cooperation made the people in Montgomery feel like this was something everybody supported. It also helps because that could be a southern corridor for us. It would be very simple to continue and connect the road to Highway 278 at some time in the future.

(It's) sort of long corridor that you walk and suddenly you are green,

That is right on the approach and departure corridor for the range.

The restoration of the entire corridor of the Cache River is extremely important to the habitat of many wildlife species, not only the Ivory-billed Woodpecker,

Their property backs up to a wildlife corridor and they are going to see more wildlife than people on Perkins Street, ... I understand it is a really intrusive and difficult problem to deal with.
