Sixth Street public input
The City’s next planning activity is around the Council-approved Uptown Streetscape Vision for Sixth Street near Sixth Avenue. There’s an overview of the current activity here. At the bottom of that page you can click through to a survey to show your level of support; you have to register for “Be Heard New West” but they only need your name and email. We hope to have more news on this soon.
Talk NewWest
Check out Iceland’s answer to the Zuckerberg Metaverse where you don’t need goggles. Also a new podcast suggestion; this time a five-part digital supernatural thriller where the past comes to life. See both on Talk NewWest.
