Reply to comment by mobtown_misanthrope in Parklet fee: Restaurants, bars weigh future of outdoor structures by GovernorOfReddit
I feel like the discussion on design aesthetic isn’t the right direction - especially because it feels slightly … coded. The more important design questions should be regarding safety, like when places would put propane burners inside parklets with poor/no ventilation.

A sqft fee that adapts to the street in question is probably the best route tbh rather than trying a city-wide flat fee that tries to avoid losses anywhere. Like a neighborhood where losing parking spaces isn’t a huge issue or a street with a more pedestrian feel should be cheaper, and definitely shouldn’t be raised to match this loss.

I’d also point to the upstairs bar at Ottobar as another “not specifically gay but” place in that area. Art school students/grads also seem to be more in that area than they are in MV anymore.

Slower speeds also means higher throughput. It probably sounds counterintuitive, but slower speeds means shorter braking distances thus more cars can occupy the road.

It honestly should be something touristy as much as it pains me to say, but also that shows off the city and lets city-based businesses more easily engage with tourists. National mall and boardwalk chains just ain’t it. They could also try to do a farmers market there or on McKeldon Plaza

I personally don’t mind joggers in the bike lanes, as long as they are actually aware of their surroundings and yield to faster-moving bikers (thus I can understand the annoyance). I think that’s more of an education issue than it is an enforcement one.

Can we also talk about people snarkily just saying “why aren’t you using search” or linking to something without comments? It’s not helpful and doesn’t solve the problem.

Reply to We plan to permanently close the alley between N Bond St & N Broadway, as it is too narrow for vehicle traffic. If you oppose the closure, you must inform our office by calling 443-984-2150 or emailing Traffic.Calming@BaltimoreCity.gov within 7 days. by BmoreCityDOT
Will the remainder of that alley system for that block be open and just that entrance be closed, or will all entrances in be closed?

Reply to Would be awesome if the JFX and Jones Falls river could be converted like this by Cunninghams_right
Utrecht was one of the greatest places I’ve ever been. From the proposals I’ve seen to truncate the JFX around 41st Street and convert the portion south to being a split-boulevard, the height of the promenade down to the river quay would be quite magnificent and beautiful.

Reply to comment by bwoods43 in Would be awesome if the JFX and Jones Falls river could be converted like this by Cunninghams_right
Most proposals call for the JFX to be converted around the Pepsi Sign and the Light Rail for that portion would have dedicated lanes. It isn’t a total removal of the JFX, it’s truncating it.

Pedestrianization doesn’t necessarily mean busses would cease to use it. Some places just will close the street to private traffic or only allow it in certain hours (such as having only certain hours for deliveries).

If it’s anything regarding distribution or production, then health-based social organizations aren’t where to look. But it’s good that you were asking about alternatives.
