Has anyone else noticed this building?  The back faces the intersection, and the "front" where all the windows are faces back towards the west?  Not that I had high hopes for a fast food restaurant, but couldn't they at least give people driving by something to look at besides the employee entrance and the line of cars in the drive through?  Ridiculous!

Yea - it is really odd - probably just trying to attract their "clientele" i.e. Wal-Mart customers. But on the bright side, it does completely hide Wal-Mart if driving south on Yale all the way to the intersection.

Hiding a Wal-Mart with a Whataburger?  That makes sense.  ::)

I will say the outdoor lighting around the Panda Express is much more sedate than any Whataburger I have seen.
So my concern at this point is, unless Whataburger suddenly decides to break their old bad floodlighting habits, they will overwhelm the Panda Express, who will then feel the need to "ratchet" their lighting to keep up.

FYI, the city only addresses non-complying lighting by citizen complaints to the MAC.  If that should be necessary, the more the merrier...
