Westside of Patterson, north of allen near the bridge over the creek. The area is eroding away, has been since 2008, and needs to be repaired. Soon the sidewalk will cave in and eventually the street.
I have a couple questions for you about who to talk to for issues in neighborhoods. The first is about sidewalks - right now I'm living in a non Near West Side neighborhood (I broke up with my boyfriend, moved out, and had to find a place quickly.) Anyway, there's tons of construction nearby - I live on 13th/College but walk to work at 10th/Morton, and I almost get run over by cars every morning. It's kind of terrifying! I just wonder - couldn't the city work with the construction workers to create a safe place for pedestrians while this construction is going on? I wouldnt' have said anything, but it's been a month and clearly the construction is going to take a few more months.
