Description
I'd like to add on to the panhandling thing and just remark that there is a huge amount of catcalling - borderline harassment - being thrown at every woman who walks down Chapel between State and the Green, pretty much any day of the week.
It makes me uncomfortable.
I don't know what anyone can reasonably do about this, but I'd really like to have a community conversation about it.

Josh - an end to public transportation and addiction services?
Maybe some signs about the problem? "Harassment is a crime. Report it to #."

Sorry I could have been more clear. I'm looking for a end to the hub and spoke bus system that dumps everyone off in the center of new haven.
As far as methadone the centers should be equally spread out through out the state and they should be required to test all patents for drugs before dispensing more drugs.
If we just implemented these sensible solutions we see a marked decrease in so many crimes in the downtown area.

Do you think it would change the attitudes of folks if the bus areas were more engaging, or if the empty lots on Chapel were filled with businesses that appealed to folks so they didn't spend as much time waiting for the bus and standing around, bored, but had something interesting for them to look at or talk about?
Maybe not new construction, but rotating public art or popup shops? I'd love to give the street vendors a nice place to congregate to make a small outdoor market. I think that was being discussed as an option for the corner of Chapel and Orange at some point during the dog park debate.

Really? Isn't that the palladium building? I thought it was historic.
Unless you mean the lot kitty-corner with the blightastrophic building at 810 Chapel (or so) that's been boarded up for years.
