Event Notification: BUCKLE UP (literally…)You may have noticed that Roosevelt Park is gearing up for something big and/or heard the sound check last night. You should anticipate a lot of visitors over the next few weeks. And while no amount of parking information will ensure that visitors utilize the Bagley Mobility Hub, we feel that what has been communicated isn’t adequate and have requested more. If parking is illegal/egregious please document with a picture and send to info@trainstationneighborsblockclub.org. We will collect and use in upcoming discussions with leadership. For anything unsafe that occurs, call 911.
