Follow up on #167661: I got this email "Sean Starowitz contacted Sean Starowitz
I received your Ureport. Yes, we are waiting on the weather to warm up to finish the Traffic Boxes. This tends to be a learning curve for new artists and some were not able to get started (or did) before the weather turned.
We have a few finished - 2nd and College and Kirkwood and Adams. The other four are in the works. "
The box at 2nd and College is the one I asked about. It is NOT finished. One wide sign is painted; there is another wide side side and the two narrow sides left to prime and paint. All previous boxes have all 4 sides (and maybe the top) painted. This new box is bigger, but that's no reason to scale down. Thanks.

Kmart has been empty for years now and is looking worse and worse. This area needs redeveloped badly. Can the city please get involved to do something with this old big box store. Soon!

Dave’s Hot Chicken blares music and PA announcements very loudly, audible more than half of a block away. You can’t carry on a conversation while passing the restaurant. This seems to be a violation of the city’s noise ordinance. Please enforce it. Thank you.

How long will the City allow graffiti to be over a pride flag and trans flag on a mural? People's park. You can celebrate black lives matter without saying marginalized LGBT lives don't. Time to think of a different way to honor blm. Bring back rare Midwestern recognition of lgbt people. Please. It's just plastered over like the city doesn't care.

Two blocks of east Kirkwood st seem to be closed off. I am asking if this is permanent? I understand its allowing out side dining which is nice. However there is a great shortage of parking in downtown. Removing 2 whole blocks of parking means that I'll never be able to park and use the restaurants that are at those locations. I cant use the library for the same reason. So I understand that this is good for students but it's bad for residents. And I think over all bad for business. I hope that after the virus scare is over you have plans to reopen parking there. What is the plan? Thanks
