Waiting for Action on North Avenue

On my walk home from the PMUA building, I stopped by North Avenue to see what was happening. In early afternoon, this big thing was sitting unattended in front of the building damaged in the Dec. 17 fire. The street was still blocked off.
Strong wind gusts were tossing around the barriers.
These businesses - two restaurants and a hair salon - have been closed since Dec. 17. One wonders what the owners will find when they get back inside. Our sympathies on the loss of business.

Once the fire-damaged building is boarded up and secured, the street may finally be reopened and the 24-hour police guard may cease. If owners can get to Tuesday's council meeting, expect some angry comments about this month-long wait for action.
