We have police don't we?<br /><br />Plans I've seen don't support your assertion that the new building will take up half the space (rather, five feet over the West curb is what I've seen) or that it will be fenced off.<br /><br />If you have evidence to support those claims please show it to me, so that everyone can be more well-informed.<br /><br />And, again, I see no evidence that anything about this closure is dangerous. Certainly not more dangerous than car traffic is.Pedestrianisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03067236246319422235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4511182286834112345.post-39193375939694623742009-09-10T23:37:03.919-07:002009-09-10T23:37:03.919-07:00You must have arrived with your camera after the f...You must have arrived with your camera after the full time security guard had scooted the derelicts out of the space. Human housekeeping happens around 9:00 AM every morning. The security guard keeping things orderly is just part of the "park" illusion.<br /> <br />Given that the proposed library will be built over 1/2 of the "park" area with the narrow remainder in building shadows during the afternoon, and that this space will be cyclone fenced to restrict pedestrian use and to keep out undesirables all of this exhibit amounts to a big fake out. <br /><br />If this was a good idea for my born and raised neighborhood I'd be the first to support it. The idea of permanently closing Mason Street is too damned dangerous to just be called idiotic.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12986553177523432134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4511182286834112345.post-54294745793575075022009-09-01T11:59:26.437-07:002009-09-01T11:59:26.437-07:00I live a couple of blocks away from here and love ...I live a couple of blocks away from here and love the new plaza.
