zaphod Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Campanile on Minimax is one of the weirdest, kludgiest names for an apartment complex I've ever seen but I kind of love it. I mean think about it. A campanile is an Italian word for a bell tower we associate with college campuses and old world city centers. Minimax was a grocery store that went out of business. I find it amusing and kind of cool that the name of a long defunct supermarket chain lives on just because the driveway into their distribution center back in the 1970s was a public road and got a name printed on road signs and maps. And then due to happenstance all that land is getting developed into high density residential. Eventually it will just be the Minimax District, and I actually think that's kind of cool and they should go with it.
