See the redirect below.)<br /><br />The truth of the matter is that Mission Street is changing along here, and the long-term trend will not be altered by the presence or absence of a Police Facility at that site. A Police Station might accelerate the trend, but choosing the O'Brien site for a Police Station will not somehow keep Mission Street "pristine" or otherwise free of "encroachment." The block just south of the library will get redeveloped at some point regardless. It's mostly zoned "commercial office" and "commercial retail."<br /><br />If you would like to continue the conversation or debate, let's move the thread to <a href="http://breakfastonbikes.blogspot.com/2015/04/lord-and-schryver-museum-gaiety-hollow-also-shows-mission-street-in-transition.html" rel="nofollow">this post on the changing character of Mission Street</a>! It's a worthwhile topic, but just probably not best for here.<br /><br />Let's keep this post for any further discussion of the more narrow question about bike parking at Gaiety Hollow.Salem Breakfast on Bikeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15618055627843335993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666195730630249633.post-16016228079707272372016-01-28T08:49:31.642-08:002016-01-28T08:49:31.642-08:00What would the impact on Gaiety Hollow be if the C...What would the impact on Gaiety Hollow be if the City decided to build a 150,000 square foot police facility with a 260 space parking garage two blocks away! That is one of the two alternatives that the City Council will consider in late February at a work session and then a public hearing. I think that would change the character of the neighborhood and make it less amenable to walking and biking.Jim Scheppkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077003905171156283noreply@blogger.com
