Build this current bike path, but also be aware that more needs to be done in the future. After you build it, then pressure people to make sure that tourists downtown do get good links and digns pointing to the waterfront.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-91228154151930399832007-10-23T11:03:00.000-04:002007-10-23T11:03:00.000-04:00Wah Wah.

It's always about how it affects them personally. Get over yourself. There are thousands of walkers, hikers, and bikers in this city but you apparently can't see beyond your own self interests. This is a start in the right direction to reclaiming a decrepit waterfront that politicians and private interest developers have let decline for decades.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-90126443846403754242007-10-22T12:47:00.000-04:002007-10-22T12:47:00.000-04:00I fail to see how this will bring revenue to the c...I fail to see how this will bring revenue to the city, just good for bikers and hikers. How do you get tourists etc to go to the waterfront when there is nothing on Penns Landing to see except a poor seaport museum and a few old ships. No central activity on Penns Landing even the festivals are poorly attended.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-15031411711375602892007-09-27T11:34:00.000-04:002007-09-27T11:34:00.000-04:00Wow, that would be fantastic.

I make that distance at about 2 miles, but looking at the aerial photos south of Pier 70, it looks like it would be impossible to extend it further south along the waterfront. I wonder if PennDot would be willing to give up some road south of Pier 70.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701305389670518318noreply@blogger.com
