Oh, um. I'm just gonna list dreams, I guess? I'm honestly not sure what's pragmatic / "realistic." Probably none of it, or some of it would have happened by now.

• A huge, outdoor amphitheatre downtown that has free shows all the time, like the one in Chicago's Millennium Park

• A riverwalk, too, while I'm stealing from Chicago -- with vibrant business running along at least one of the rivers

• Buses that run to/through downtown that pass through all of our neighborhoods every 20-30 minutes, at least

• The train to run through the North Hills, and not just the South.

• Snow removal as reliable as the surrounding suburban areas have, where they run all night and you're ready with a drivable road in the morning
