Eilan is massive.
The only thing that concerns me about the project is its accessibility and connectivity to pretty much the rest of the areas neighborhoods. The shops/retail might suffer and there might be some empty stores for some time. That could be a good thing (short term) because if retail is overbuilt, then we might see a larger push toward high(er) density residential at Cantera Town Center, Village at the Rim and anything that is built at Landmark. That would be better for the area, except for the traffic it'll cause on 1604/10.
