I'm all about pedestrianizing east passyunk, but the part of Capitolo at the corner of 9th and Federal is currently a well-used kid's playground. Beyond that heading towards 10th is a recently renovated/updated soccer pitch, and beyond that is the community garden. Heading towards Wharton is the basketball courts, which are heavily used. Which of these gathering spaces for our community do you recommend we get rid of so that tourists can park their fucking cars?

Make "Walk East Passyunk!" a thing, recommend people park at Constitution Health Plaza and walk down the Ave starting at Broad. Getting rid of greenspace and public park space for a parking garage sort of defeats the purpose of making a street car-free.
