  • This is so sad. Visibility isn't the best at Standard & Grant plus cars zoom by at high speeds in large clusters.

    We contacted the City's rep at traffic planning last year to express our concern about blind spots, parking issues & the need to curb speeds at this intersection but these problems were never remedied. Now someone has died.

    How can we activate the Eastside neighborhood association? It's been dormant for too long.
