Where would you expect to place on-street parking, on Riverwalk Way or Second Street?
I believe the space between Turner Street and the trail (up above), at the corner of Second Street, could be perfect off-street parking with space for signage. Though I am unsure of the ownership of that parcel.

Ah, apologies, I was thinking of S Main and the Piscataquog trail or "rail trail".

I come across this problem trying to get to the Local Moose Cafe on the southern corner from the north/east. It's near impossible to get across with the Quick traffic! On one occasion, I let a couple with a stroller go before I made that turn.

It may be worth considering putting a traffic light here to control this intersection (ideally synced with the Queen City Ave / Sundial Ave intersection). A far number of people going north on Browne Ave make an (illegal) left turn on to Queen City Ave.

Wish list - taking advantage of Manchester's river frontage and having public green spaces along the river and rail trail that connect to Arms Park downtown.

This area could house a mid-rise residential building with parking on the ground floor underneath the residences. Dozens of new housing units would help ease the housing shortage (at least a bit). They could be pet-friendly apartments and take advantage of the dog park too! If done right, there could still be a bit of expansion of Bass Island Park onto the SE side of Second St.

Bass Island Park, and the Dog Park across the street are cool locations. It would be nice if the whole island were a park. The lumber/construction materials that sit here seem really out of place/ uninviting.

Having a connection to the water front cycle path from Elm Street, somewhere in between Granite St and Queen City Ave would be nice. Currently, you can connect via entrance behind Delta Dental Stadium or you have to cross the wide and busy Queen City Ave to connect to the trail at Sundial Ave to the South. Perhaps utilize Hancock St next to the Elliot to make a connection?

"Trail Head" Parking on this or the other side of the Hands Across bridge would bring more attention to this amenity. Previously there had been some parking available on/at Turner Street but that seems to have been taken by construction. Currently many trail sites suggest parking at Sarette Field and that is too much of a walk for many residents. (Friends living here for Years had no idea how to access the bridge!)

This trail is a wonderful asset, but this intersection has always seemed Very dangerous with how heavily trafficked it is. The flashing light is good but I don't feel it is enough, as pedestrian or motorist.
The west side of Willow Street from Auburn to Valley Street is an eyesore and could use some inventive re-use, i.e. affordable housing. The blocks facing the Cemetery would have beautiful views, and more population density would create a safer environment.
