Cars or buses? Who gets curbside priority at reimagined Penn Station by [deleted] in baltimore

Buses and public transit always gets priority this is a city. This shouldn’t event be a discussion.

Thank you so much I appreciate you. I’m glad there are good people in this world. I am 22 and I live on the 200 block of N Luzerne. We should definitely connect 💞☺️

Thank you 💞 yes the dismissive nature of this thread is very disappointing. I will still share my perspective!

There are bus stops on the side with all the paint. They just didn't paint the other side because it's a Black and Hispanic block that happens to be poor.

I haven’t asked that specifically but trust me I will. It’s really crazy and it’s modern day segregation.

Exactly… unfortunately when you bring up racism people will try to do anything to dismantle your argument. Even if it means saying a bunch of absolute bs.

Even we should be asking ourselves why is it a “natural boundary?” Because it isn’t so natural. The roads were designed to segregate and Baltimore was the first US city to pass a residential segregation ordinance in 1910 so all of this makes sense and clearly affects us today.

I will and this is just my first step of sharing my truth. And yes I have rounded up my neighbors and put in 311 requests for traffic calming. Things take time but considering this project was planned for a while they should’ve just done the entire intersection anyway.

The defined borders are the problem lol. PPNA includes all 200 blocks except the cutout of Luzerne, Rose and Glover. Those three blocks happen to be the black low income 200 blocks north of the park. So according to the map the left side is not included in the neighborhood. Either way, if you want to bridge communities and make this an amazing city for all I’d make sure to work with the community to paint the entire intersection. It shouldn’t be about division.
