“My immigrant grandparents had a small produce business in the strip, and my mother was raised there. It has changed significantly since then, but small pockets retain the character and charm of what it once was and that's what makes it what it is today.
I fear that a change to the traffic pattern will wreck the vibe that makes the neighborhood attractive, and it will end up the mess East Liberty became in the 1960's. It has taken 60 years for East Liberty recover to become a viable destination again.
Don't mess with the Strip.”
