...but it must be endured:

A METRO spokeswoman said the concerns of residents and business owners are legitimate.

"It's a pain. It's a pain that we all have to bear in the meantime (but) will bring benefits in the long run," said Sandra Aponte Salazar, a METRO spokeswoman.

More than $2 billion-worth of pain that all must bear for the good of less than one percent of the public.

As for the long-term benefits, look how Main Street has thrived...
