My main beef with BIA (or whoever) is those RIDICULOUS pavement signs. The iron (or whatever they are) ones on the ground. They're ugly, and in the winter they are DANGEROUS. What moron decided that these would be a good idea? It doesn't add to the aesthetic to the area at all and look (at best) shoddy. When they're covered with a thin layer of snow (with ice underneath) they are extremely dangerous. Remove them. Spend what ever budget they are allocated to get rid of them.
I was having a great walk with my dog during the snow fall late this afternoon & had to stop off at Pharma Plus. As I was walking toward Wellesley on the west side of the street guess who slipped on the "WELLESLEY" brass sign that was covered under a layer of snow and went down? ME! My elbow is killing me. It's the first time that I finally got nailed by one of those stupid things, and only days after we were discussing them.
There's also Buddies (usually Friday/Saturday nights), and Straight (small, but supposedly more "posh")
Straight Lounge has been closed the past few weekends, not sure if they're doing some renos. or what's going on there. The heat lamp is still out front.
