Old boarding house at 624 S Fess uses its backyard on University for parking. Because there are no tire stops motorists often encroach on the sidewalk when they park their cars.

Sign abandoned after cbu construction acouple weeks ago at 11th & college is blocking sidewalk on south side of 11th just west of college
The old Bloomington bagel co building has a construction site that has been blocking the sidewalk for weeks...i beams, concrete trucks, saw horses in front of the entrance of 420. Not even trying to keep it open.
This vehicle is frequently parked on the sidewalk.
tree branches and planting are covering/impacting over half of the sidewalk in front of 620 S. Park Avenue. It's been a problem for over four months. There was a big dead dangling tree branch (which has been removed) but the rest of the tree and the ground cover has taken over the sidewalk.
This property has trees/shrubbery taking over up to 75% of the sidewalk. Yesterday I watched an elderly woman try to navigate past it and it was very difficult for her.
I live in Canterbury house apartments and use the Bloomington Transit to get around. My daughter (26) and myself are both disabled and have mobility limitations. I would assume that it was from last Wednesday's storms, but there is a large tree branch blocking the sidewalk along basswood between the entrance to Canterbury House Apartments and the bus stop at Forest Ridge Apartments. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and had to be at the bus stop by 7:20AM and was surprised to see such a mess blocking the sidewalk. Since my daughter would be unable step off the sidewalk with her rollater walker to avoid the section that the tree branch covers it meant we had to walk from Canterbury House Apartments entrance to the entrance to Forest Ridge on the road. This was very unsettling for both her and I because we both know how bad cars fly around the corner and how fast they speed through this section. We came in from the bus at 2:25pm today and the tree branch was still there so we took a photo to show.
