There is construction happening in the alleyway of 111 E 6th St, which is behind the Btown Smoke Time (corner of walnut and sixth). My apartment is in this alleyway, and there is no other access besides the alley door. The construction is currently blocking me from entering my apartment, and is blocking my roommate from leaving the apartment, because they have torn the alley out and blocked any alley entrance with heavy machinery. While I’m sure this was a necessary project, this is something that needs to be informed to residents if they are going to be blocking them inside/outside of their homes.

Someone needs to check on the construction crew working Rogers Street in the Patterson area. They are blocking the sidewalk with their materials on the east side near the warehouse. One of the contractors unexpectedly pulled his truck out onto the street to block a vehicle and then pulled it out aggressively again almost causing an accident. When confronted about this being unsafe he said “I can do whatever I want“.
