Project Related Concerns A better connection needed to the Boneyard Creek, including way-finding Retailers slow to develop west of Fourth Street (lack of pedestrian traffic) Lack of bike lanes and sidewalks

Comments about the Green Street Corridor− “Finding a way to safely get pedestrians & bikes thru the viaduct is huge”− “Look for new concepts from recent projects in other urban areas”− “The viaduct should be an aesthetic priority”

When you think about Green Street, what comes to mind?− “The have’s and have not’s (Green Street east of Fourth vs. west of Fourth)”− “Too much traffic, still”− “Heavy pedestrian traffic”
