Here is one thing The Magnificent wouldn’t tell the Patch or our residents. Building two parking garages with retail and a large box store combined with 180 Apt on S Broad St , 80 apt. on Chestnut street and who knows how many apartments on Maple Ave.now with all this long term construction going on and the congestion that accompanies these projects who is going to want to shop in Ridgewood?
Do they real thing that this is going to take 30 days to do? This will deal a death blow for any of the store who are just hanging .
People avoid the CBD now because of the congestion . What about pedestrian safety? According to the The Magnificent 7 and the Ridgewood Chamber of Commerce ” Its all good.”
I avoid the CBD because there are no stores that I need. No hardware store, no stationary store, etc. And if I do park, I have to be careful that I pay the meter. Too bad, RIP good old downtown.
