      1130 W 34th Street

      Lutheran North, LEAH, is closing at the end of this academic year. It is unknown what will happen to the several large plots the school was occupied along the 34th St. corridor. this is an expensive neighborhood with a lot of children. There is a well attended Catholic school at the north edge. This seemed like a place this type of school would thrive. https://www.lutherannorth.org/lutheran-north-academy?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR2MHTzmwSD_wRdcbOmaq5uwAPZwCp04xvLmxgKMc6387f_ldzUvKDXZEqQ_aem_AXx8iauJo1RS2j-lW880P88oNH42HExwUN4WycsKHgke0_gttw7GkMqP-2qU7J-2AZvEJJgCTxXoM38XjdZuQLtr

      The RO: Mixed-Use Development At West Alabama And Buffalo Spdwy.

      I’m counting at least 12 permits pulled so far for 3030 Buffalo Speedway (parcel 1), 3070 Buffalo Speedway (all wastewater) and 3425 West Alabama Street (parcel 2). The latter puts it in a different zip code. I also heard that the new utility poles on Alabama that were moved for the COH Alabama restoration will be removed and the lines ran underground, at the RO’s expense. They don’t want a bunch of power lines running in front of their new buildings, which is a big plus. The UK portion of the Alabama Reconstruction could start as early as July, but since these things never start on time it will likely be by the end of the year or first of 2025.

      The RO: Mixed-Use Development At West Alabama And Buffalo Spdwy.

      It will be a uniform matter - the office building will be a part of the masterplan of the entirety of the project and to the specifications and standards established for The RO.

      Montrose Boulevard Improvements

      your scenario is while valid, seems to be a bit of an edge case. 3' sidewalks are unacceptable, they do not even allow for people walking to even pass each other and stay on the sidewalk without getting into personal space. they are far too narrow. 10' is great to provide complete coverage for almost every situation possible, including yours. 5' provides for the most common scenarios, while perhaps still causing issue for the edge cases. people are able to walk on the sidewalk without stepping off to pass people going the other way, and also for groups to walk 2 wide going the same direction. 3' encourages people to not walk, 5' provides a solution for most who might want to walk and won't discourage people from choosing a walk instead of a drive. 10' is great where there is ROW, but I'd submit if the ROW can support 10' sidewalks on both sides, maybe there should be 5' sidewalk, and 5' bike path, rather than a 10' sidewalk.
