Editor,
It looks like the new 450 building on the corner of Delaware Street and Concar Drive has a big problem. What happened to the sidewalk going south on Delaware Street? It seems to have been replaced by a lovely stretch of landscaping and trees.
When walking to the fair this past week I discovered a 50-foot section of sidewalk is gone. One can walk from the stoplight to the front of the building and then the sidewalk abruptly ends. What should a pedestrian do, use the stairs and ramps of this building, which eventually connects to the remaining sidewalk at the entrance to the parking garage? Whose blunder is this? This could not have been part of the original drawings, could it? With that section of the street being blocked for more than a year it was hard to see what was happening but surely, someone must have realized there is no sidewalk.
What I would like to know is who signed off on this? Or is this building going to be so “special” that they don’t want pedestrians to sully the premises?
