Minor issue now, but will need attention soon. McDonalds on 3rd and Pete Ellis have thorny bushes encroaching the sidewalk along the Pete Ellis side.

There is no connection from the Speedway sidewalk to the Town & Country Apartments sidewalk. It has been mud in the years past, but now there is newly planted grass. The area in question is also a bus stop. It looks like the property belongs to Town & Country. Is there a plan to remediate? How does one upload a second photo?
Driveway gravel covering sidewalk. I have rectified this before when the volume was much smaller. It seem to be a defect, although it may meet code. Neither residents, nor owners/management are cognizant of the issue, apparently. They still haven't rectified the reported and NOVed light trespass issue either.
The sidewalks at this location are never shoveled/ salted/ de-iced. This includes the ones around their building and the main walks on 6th and 7th streets. Navigating these areas as a pedestrian is frequently dangerous due to ice and piles up snow during freezing weather. These walkways are consistently inaccessible/ impassable even for an able bodied pedestrian but the accessibility issue is much worse for some. This is a very large lot and creates a significant safety issue and nuisance for the Near West Side community
Extremely icy stretch of sidewalk in front of Wells Library facing 10th st. It is a high traffic area and includes a city/campus bus stop, and it is extremely difficult to walk on even with appropriate footwear. I slipped there a few days ago and was injured! It seems like there's no attempt to salt the area at all, and requests placed to the University to clear the area haven't been fulfilled.
Between 811 and 815 N Jackson, the sidewalk across the alley is . . . gone?? There's just a grassy gap there now. It's surely the city's responsibility to replace it since it across the alley.
Between 925 and 927 W Jackson, there's a sidewalk across the alley that's made of asphalt or something. It's down at a different level from the surrounding sidewalk and is a tripping hazard. Because it's across the alley, it's the city's responsibility to repair.
The bit of sidewalk across the alley is made of bricks that are at a significantly lower level than the surrounding sidewalk and therefore is a tripping hazard. Because it's in front of an alley, I suppose it's the city's responsibility to upgrade the bit to something safer, like has been done on the opposite side of the street.
Unable to see the hazards of this sidewalk which is a stone and mortar sidewalk which is already a hazard to walk on.
The flex posts creating a safer pedestrian crossing at College/14th St. are damaged and no longer provide the benefit they intend. Please repair them, as I cross the street here frequently and would like to do so safely.
