I dunno, it shouldn't be a problem considering there is a sizable amount of foot traffic on lower Grand despite the fact that the sidewalk above is practically collapsing (held up only by temporary bracing) and infested with panhandlers looking to shake down anyone who passes among the supports.
I think this area has a lot of potential especially if Optima is going to have St. Clair level retail as well.
Just glad to see that nasty mini lot and it's massive curb cut bite the dust. I know we are being trolled, but Young and Egotistic should be thrilled that the removal of that wasteful lot will probably create just as many available spots on the street by eliminating the half block long curb cut that currently serves the lot.
