Glad to see Davlan Park (soon to be Davlan Point) isn’t getting turned into an apartment building or condos as I initially worried when I saw it was fenced off with signs up seekin Public Comments.
I’ll miss those Buffalo Chicken Crepes.
Sounds like the “park” redo is more about adding seating for their retail tenants, than anything to do with a park. I’m also unsure how that translates into a $75k bill for signage that the private owner is passing off to the public
You should read more carefully. The Cultural Trail is run by a nonprofit and that organization is raising the cost of relocating the signage. (The “park” largely functions now as an outdoor waiting space for Bru and overflow seating for Starbucks. And since it’s privately owned, they can do as they wish.)
Chris I 100 agree it is privately owned and they can do what they want. I would also add seating for my retail restaurants. That is why I am laughing at the term “park”. There must be some public $ involved. I have no clue why the culture trail is even part of this story. Spending $75k to relocate a sign for no apparent reason is a perfect example of how non-profits spend other people’s money.
Chuck, I am not getting what you’re gripe is about? Except, I guess you want to play the tired role of the “get off my lawn” old man. The park is owned by the neighborhood development corporation, Riley Area Development Corporation, which also developed and owns the apartment building and commercial space. The development corporation wants to make something nicer for both residents and people who come to spend money at the businesses in their neighborhood. They control the property, they could cover it in gravel, plant a rose garden, or plop down an inflatable pool–it is their property to do as they wish. It falls under “none of your business,” just as I am sure you don’t want either your neighbors or complete strangers telling you what to do with your own property, so long as you’re abiding by the applicable zoning/permitting rules.
As for the Cultural Trail being a non-profit using money, they are just like for-profit businesses that use “other people’s money” because people choose to give them money. And, the signage has to be moved because construction is being done. Anyway, if it bothers you, don’t donate to the Cultural Trail, but I am guessing you already do not–so problem solved. Now, thank me for saving you time you can reallocate to go whine about something else.
That trail-donor recognition sign is a slab of metal with names in type. It is not art; it is advertising, visually akin to the back of a marathon T-shirt. Please don’t put something that ugly in such a prominent spot on Massachusetts Avenue. Bleh. It should be sold for scrap.
How do I get to be a signage mover for the Cultural Trail? I could probably manage to move a few things around for 75K.
The inclusion of the Cultural Trail signage is really unfortunate, but here on Mass Ave its all about whatever RADC-a CDC that has worn out its welcome here really-and its board members-want, not what the actual stakeholders on Mass Ave want. The Storrow Kinsella connection to RADC doesn’t really pass the smell test-in the old days we called this a conflict of interest, but nowadays its business as usual in this town. I would be shocked that the IHPC approved this hideous obviously commercial signage, but nothing surprises me anymore.
