When we simply close a single block to cars and open to people, the balance of safety and peacefulness shifts dramatically. This street is usually precarious to cross because drivers are going fast. Without, it’s quiet, you hear kids playing, people chatting. Vast improvement.
@milwaukeedpw When might you post these to Bluesky as well? These are way too excellent to not share with that crowd. They’d be so happy to see this amazing transformation!
@blackurbanist Are you on bluesky yet? (Seems like no) Quite an exodus of people showing up there in the last few days and it’s better than even a couple months ago. Hope to be able to follow you!
Open this app, flood of bot follows. Spend a few mins today trying out the place with bluer skies. More people there than you might expect. This will get you a long ways towards re-following your existing people. https://t.co/tNZGDSP6v4
