Washington Street along the pike is a scar running through the city that should be able to present great development and community opportunities. Whether it's parking, green space, retail, bike lanes, or some other unthought of plan there is a great need to reconnect the two sides of Newtonville with each other. A design charrette and coming up with a master plan that pre-approved smart development and that worked in conjunction with Massport would be a great opportunity for growth while improving the pedestrian experience. These kind of places abound and need to be considered preemptively

The Mosman - Maynard neighborhood (perhaps we could call it Quabeca - the Quadrilateral below Calvary Cemetery) is under siege as these lovely, smaller, and relatively affordable homes are being torn down for monsters three times the size. The FAR allows for homes of over 4,000 square feet in an area of homes that were originally build to about 1,200 square feet. Adjusting the FAR to perhaps double the size of the original home might help save this wonderful neighborhood from becoming full of over-sized, slapped-up McMansions built on spec.

complete the fencing around this playground.

add large boulders on the Cheesecake Brook side of the road in this area to stop irresponsible parents from parking here to pickup there children from school. These dopes create a very dangerous situation at pickup time.

Turn the unneeded section of Ablemarle Road between North and Maynard into parkland. The park at Lowell and Watertown Street is a good example of this idea.

Narrow the intersection of Brookdale and Albemarle. It is too wide open and promotes use of Albemarle as a high speed cut through to avoid the traffic light at North and Crafts. Traffic calming would slow down the cars.

This is my neighborhood of bungalows and Capes. These are smaller houses practical for singles and relatively affordable for families. They have yards for kids to play in. This neighborhood needs to be preserved, not allowed to be torn down by developers, which has already started with one house on Larkin Road.

Add angle parking adjacent to the new Fessenden fields. The Sunday parking situation. Is dangerous with the fields on both side of the brook in use as well as the weekly Sunday use of Day Middle school.
