Blocked Street
1015 E Atwater AVE
- Case Date:
- 5/14/2015
The Emeriti House at 1015 E. Atwater serves the retired faculty at IU. Currently the entrance to the alley behind the house is blocked off at Hawthorne for some minor resurfacing. Tomorrow, Fri 5/15, Faculty Ave will be resurfaced, so the entire access to the alley will be blocked off. I have two retired professors coming by tomorrow, one to pick up a very LARGE piece of art to transport to the Convention Center for a presentation. Emeriti House also has its art exhibit going on this month, as we do every year. Is this alley going to be open from the Hawthorne side by tomorrow morning? My professor must have access to the alley and our ramp for this piece of art. I would appreciate a quick reply so I can contact him about this. Also, in future, if the alley is being worked on or blocked, could someone please call me, as it impedes the traffic and our clientele, as most are retired and some use canes, etc. Thank you! Nat

I'm worried about a mallard nest in the park - that the mom and eggs will survive with dogs etc. in the park. Just wanted to make you aware. It's located in the weedy area around the ditch that flows north to south, near a bird house.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

- Case Date:

There is a pothole that continues to grow on Sheridan just to the right of the line diving the driving lane from the pedestrian/bike lane. The pothole is not located in the pedestrian/bike lane, but it is quite close, and has the potential for a cyclist to run into it when passing others in the lane. The pothole is just east of a green bench on Sheridan.

I'm reporting this on behalf of a gentleman on the EH listserv, who reports a bulb out in one of the "charming old streetlamps" on Hawthorne at 2nd. Not quite sure which one it is, and you may get other reports on this as he sent it out to the entire listserv.

There are several spots along the Rail Trail (dirt/gravel section of the B-Line) where dirt has been dug up across the full width of the trail to build impromptu bike jumps. This has resulted is trip hazards and an uneven trail surface. I counted 2 spots where his had occurred during my visit yesterday. Can someone review and hopefully correct this please?
