So we as a neighborhood will need to be proactive and then active participants in the process. It appears that Peter Siegrest wants to get the neighborhood involved from the very beginning on this one.

That parking lot is full of broken glass and the backs of the garages on the far side are real ugly (no offense intended to the owners - they ARE the backs of garages). I've long though that the neighborhood would look better with something coming out to Park Ave in that lot. My vote is for something that comes right out to the sidewalk - with parking in the back. I'd also favor retail on the ground floor to further the pedestrian-friendly amenities and "destination factor" of our little stretch of Park Ave. I’m excited that there is interest in some sort of development here.
