A street light is needed at this intersection for pedestrian safety.
In response to uReport case #178550, if the property owner has had to repeatedly paint over graffiti, then perhaps the built environment could be examined to see if any improvements could be made that would benefit the property owner as well as residents. A walk down that street at night reveals pitch black darkness. There is a light at the T intersection of Fairview and 11th, but the illumination does not reach around the bend in Fairview. The property has a light in their lot which actually causes the sidewalk on Fairview to be even darker in contrast. It has never felt safe as a pedestrian or cyclist but that can be remedied by personal use of lights. However, having the street illuminated could help to make it less hospitable for delinquent behavior as well as the wonderful bonus of increased safety for non-motorist travelers. Lastly, vehicles regularly speed down the decline on 11th, fail to stop at the stop sign, and continue around the bend on Fairview. I would think that increased illumination would be helpful to those motorists who are already driving recklessly. Thank you.
Greetings. On a daily basis I commute as a pedestrian through my neighborhood. Part of my route involves the view of an entire length of a building filled with phrases such as, LETS WRECK SHIT, Hot For Crime, and LOSER. I wrote a letter over a year ago politely requesting the property owner remedy this. Additionally, I suggested they consider planting a hedgerow of sorts to restrict people's access to the wall. I have not received a reply, and no action has been taken. Can the city please address this? Also, There is graffiti all over the wall directly across from this but that is more offensive on a subjective level. Ultimately, both properties are owned by the same entity, and it would be really great if they maintained their property in a way that made the streets of Bloomington feel safe and civil. Thank you.
Please have public streetlights installed at the entrance of Whittington Commons on Allen Street. It is very dark, and it is difficult to see entrance. I know this is a private road within WC, but Allen is a public street and it is a hazard to not have streetlights at entrance given the public sidewalk crosses the entrance. Light it up!
Bollard at Kirkwood and College in front of Chase entrance needs replaced.
Some minor brickwork needed in front of Village Deli. Nothing urgent. No obstruction.
All street lights out in this location on 11/15/21
The people who live at 712 E Hunter Ave constantly throw glass bottles from their porch into a dumpster that is not theirs. Most of the time they miss on purpose and shatter glass all through the alley and road making it terrible for me to drive on. I have yelled at them but they still continue to do it multiple times through the week almost every night now. Tonight after their party they threw being loud until 2:30 am they shattered multiple bottles and I watched them throw them straight into the road. This is unacceptable and dangerous to not only our cars but all of the people who walk through here. This has been happening for MONTHS. I’ve tried to let it slide because I didn’t know if it was them but now tonight I watched them throw them straight from their porch. If you drive by the alley by the dumpster at their side door you will see glass shattered everywhere.
It is pitch black in Whittington Commons. There is no public lighting throughout the entirety of the addition. Neighbors do not turn on exterior porch or yard lanterns. Without public lighting, it is dangerous to be out at night. You cannot see five feet in front of you. Please install lights!
