[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the giant anticlimax of pedestrianizing the slip lane ought to really guide the discussion here. We had a giant neighborhood freak out over ONE block of a protected bike lane. It finally went in last summer and guess what, the sky has not fallen and nobody cares. Houses are still being sold on that block at big profits and the ads actually mention the bike lane as an amenity. [/quote] Interesting that Councilmember Frumin said last year that that if the slip (service) lane parking were lost, Option C bike lanes would have to be rethought because the cumulative loss of parking in that part of Connecticut Ave would be significant.[/quote] And yet, we have seen no negative impact from the new plaza, and it seems like the businesses there are thriving.[/quote] Says the likely academic/nonprofit/government employee that has never started or run a small business.
