posted Mar 30, 2018 at 4:00 PM

The restaurant/bar that's operated on the river in Corning Riverfront Park for the last two decade is not currently set to re-open for the season, and the floating barge that houses it is up for auction in April, Amanda Fries reports. [TU]

They should turn Maiden Lane into a stepped pedestrian street, like they have all over Europe. We don't need to reinvent the wheel, they do steep small streets pretty well across the pond, let's look for some precedents... Human scaled lighting is critical too, that goes for the whole city. And we don't need paint on the road, just signage perpendicular to the flow of traffic at the bridge entrance. I also echo the call for basic, ongoing maintenance to our current infrastructure. How about some weed removal in sidewalks, etc?
