[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The amount of time Cleveland Park has been under construction is mind boggling.   [/quote]

When NIMBYs delay projects, that is what happens. so much of everything could have been completed years ago.[/quote]

“The Promenade” is a total joke, a heat island that cost millions of dollars of taxpayer money with barely any trees, plants or seating.  The ANC rep that the hope is that bars and businesses will provide seats and water flowers.[/quote]

Yeah.. all that white concrete creates so much more heat than the black asphalt there used to... oh wait..[/quote]

Somehow it does seem to.  It is hotter than it was.  Probably because it's nothing but an open expanse of concrete.  FFS at least put some lampposts or planters on it.  It's useless wasted space at the moment.  What is it supposed to accomplish?  It has no raison d'etre.[/quote]

It was an open expanse of concrete before as well.[/quote]

I get that you hate parking and are trying to hype this thing but gimme a break.  It's pointless at the moment and a net negative.  [b]Maybe things will change after the vacuum cleaner and frame store get pushed out.[/b][/quote]

The ANC is working on it.  Didn’t several ANC commissioners pose for a photo while giving the finger to these local businesses?[/quote]
They won’t stop until it’s all chain stores. That’s their “vibrant“ goal. [/quote]
