The sidewalk that runs along the west side of North Kinser Pike btwn Acuff Road and Rosewood Drive is overgrown with shrubs/grass. It is becoming very difficult to walk on the sidewalk. The main problem is closer to Rosewood Drive.
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.
There is a trip hazard in the sidewalk on N College between W 6th and 7th street.
Gap in Handicap ramp
The small piece of extra curb at the pinned location is in the path of cars turning from 7th onto College and is not well marked, leading to cars driving over it instead of around it
Sidewalk needs grinding
Nasty nail or rebar still sticking out at the edge of the curb.
Nail is sticking out of curb and needs to be ground down.
