“We are elderly and do our grocery shopping at the strip car accessibly is essential. Limiting cars to a city is a thing of the past now with electric cars pollution is non existent nor noise. Public transportation is very limited to the area. Shops like Pennsylvania Macaroni Co.which were common before in large cities like Pittsburgh and New York city closed, so it should be nurtured and treated like a national treasure, since there are so few left in the US. It is a zone alive with traditions not a tourist attraction but a veritable link to our past. Reduced access will put in peril its survival so why risk it when downtown is floundering!
It is in your hands to preserve the heritage of this city there is enough tearing down and replacing why not leave this which works beautifully alone?”
