Is that what the "No parking, no business, no neighborhood" signs are about, 
all around West 38th (near Nu Look & the Brueggers & the Paperback 
Exchange)? Or is there some other parking fight going on?

And are the businesses on Lake Street going to be able to have street 
parking? Gary Schiff replied to my email that the businesses on Lake support 
the expansion (he cited the Mercado Central, which is one of the few that 
have parking lots that don't open onto Lake). I just don't see how they're 
going to widen Lake without knocking out buildings, truthfully - all the 
buildings front right onto the sidewalk.
