Bringing people back to Gallery Place with the open air drug market and crime seems very pie in the sky and putting the cart before the horse. Gallery Place Festival Plaza seems to be a reach to me. Unless the goal is to provide prey?

I work downtown. I don't see open air drug markets.[/quote]

It’s block by block. Feel lucky you’re on one of the safe ones. I see them all the time by my office. (Chinatown)[/quote]

I work in Chinatown. Do you know what an open air drug market is?

I think some of you just see homeless people or groups of teenagers and assume open air drug market. I have lived near an open air drug market, and[b] it describes a situation where you see people openly buying/selling, and often using, illegal drugs.[/b] I occasionally see people downtown that I suspect might be on drugs, but I virtually never see drug traffic, and the only drug I ever see people openly using is marijuana (which is annoying and needs to be addressed, but can be legally acquired in DC so is not evidence of illegal drug activity on it's own).[/quote]
Have seen all of this more times than I can count, and I’m only in Chinatown once or twice per week.[/quote]
