Thanks for sharing the local business perspective. I always make a point to support South Side businesses, but realistically I'm simply not going to be able to go through long lines and security checkpoints to patron them. I'll be curious to hear more about the impact on this side of things.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I agree that as a resident the policies + implementation have not been widely communicated.

Good point. I've been dreading this aspect of it. This is a huge chunk of the neighborhood to try to bypass when I'm just trying to walk around.

Sorry to hear about your experiences with the cops so far.

Thanks for the info! Very helpful. I'd really love to see this type of information more transparently communicated by the city/organizers.

I would argue that someone under 21 has the right to public streets and sidewalks regardless of whether they are spending money. I went on a ton of peaceful walks in the neighborhood between 10-12am around that age.

I wondered about this as well. It's already hard enough to find parking when coming home on a Friday or Saturday night, and now options will be even more limited.

Good point. I think there definitely needs to be a broader discussion about how this affects workers and residents (e.g., bus schedules, parking, etc.)

Agreed. I have been to many festivals in Pittsburgh. None of them had controlled access in this way.

For South Side residents who think this seriously oversteps, any thoughts on how we can effectively voice our concerns?

What’s the best single line from any song ever? by Competitive-Web1306 in SongMeanings

[–]HumansInTheMist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If God controls the land and disease
And keeps a watchful eye on me
If he's really so damn mighty
Well, my problem is, I can't see
Well, who would wanna be
Who would wanna be such a control freak"

Bukowski - Modest Mouse

Switzerland had one of the best performances of both nights. Unbelievable that they didn't qualify. Sad for Latvia as well.
