[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dismal scene is the treeless Promenade. May
we go back to call it a sidewalk, missing its
high function service lane. Lost souls drift around, sleep in a new bench. Addicted  and physically sick need medical attention.  Office of Planning wrote in its development plan that planning for Conn Ave was for “integration interface.” None in the Office live here. Data is their guide. Developers/Smart Growth lobby 
ruining the Conn Ave Historic District.[/quote]

+1. In retrospect I think the ANC made a terrible mistake in their all out push for “public spaces” while the city is simultaneously stacking the Connecticut Ave buildings with homeless and mentally ill.  The commercial strip now seems less welcoming than it did before, which I did not think was possible. [/quote]

How someone can walk down a spacious area, with new planters and trees just taking root, and say to themselves "this sucks I wish I was crammed up by the building jostling elbows with people and dodging opening shop doors while huffing in exhaust from idling cars instead" I can only chalk up to some extreme carbrain damage. Or maybe lead paint.[/quote]
