We'll start on the 4th Ave side of Blake Transit Center and walk and talk about the pedestrian- and bike-friendly changes of the People-Friendly Streets projects: William, First/Ashley, and Huron.

Let's talk downtown! The new bike lane that's being installed as we speak, all that Huron stuff, why part of 4th Ave has been closed most of the summer, the letter Lurie Terrace wrote to the governor - there's a lot to talk about! I'll bring some info and materials about the DDA, where I am a board member; you bring your thoughts and questions, and let's have a conversation about all things downtown.
