About 35 years ago ( yes, I'm old ) I lived close to Pioneer Park. The park was an awesome place where kids could ride their bikes, play on the train and just have fun. <br />I'm looking forward to the new brewery, I have visited some of the cool new places on Main Street and can't wait for the light rail line to open the area to new people.<br />I'm glad I found your blog and will be following along...nbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05692416084246669624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17627503456453840.post-22401553459529924662012-04-16T09:40:58.850-07:002012-04-16T09:40:58.850-07:00Integrating more transportation options to encoura...Integrating more transportation options to encourage more walking/biking options will build the community. Shuttle systems like those in Tempe would also add to the value. <br /><br />A top priority should be integrating a branch of the light rail to go up Dobson to connect the Mesa Riverwalk, to Mesa Community College and Fiesta Mall, to Banner Medical, to Chandler Regional Hospital and down to the 202 San Tan. There are also several large schools along this route as well, which could aid school transportation. Then just add several park and ride locations near the major stops to encourage use of public transportation.Dr. Thomas Dicksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977836394858940090noreply@blogger.com
