[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]No, the lot entrance is off Reno.[/b] The cafeteria is at Davenport and 36th. There is a service entrance there but not the lot (not that there would be food contamination from the lag regardless). [/quote]

booooo.    Really, a new curb cut off of Reno, so three intersections within 100 yards of each other? (Elliott, Davenport and New Driveway)

Time to alert and organize the broader community, if so.[/quote]

The folks from the neighborhood who came to the presentation didn't seem concerned. I think they're pleased that the garage traffic will be kept on a busy road rather than on the side streets, which get so congested with pick-up/drop-off traffic.

It makes a lot of sense to me.[/quote]

The broader community supports the Reno curb cut.  [b]Reno is a commuter route and most would like to see the traffic slowed[/b] in that section which is highly traveled by kids going to Murch, Deal and Wilson. If it moves commuters to a different route even better. There will also be a curb cut on 36th aligning with the curb cuts for the apartment building there. Really, in the grand scheme of things the curb cuts were probably the best thought out. [/quote]

I have bad news for you.  Wisconsin, Connecticut, Georgia, 16th, North Capitol, Benning, the 14th St. Bridge, Memorial Bridge, and Rock Creek Pkwy are also commuter routes.  Residents nearby would love to see traffic calming.  Murch/Lafayette/Deal/Wilson combined are not powerful enough to impact the commuter routes.  Try though - that will be fun to watch.  ;)[/quote]
