Ha ha believe me David !! Every Spring I make sure it gets “securely” placed in the window !!

i believe the biggest problem is that polish is a big crossroads for connecting neghborhoods. the strip, oakland, southside via the hill, bloomfield, lawrenceville, and bigelow blvd. i dont think residents are the culprits, it is those using polish hill as a shortcut, like rick sebak recently called polish hill, that are speeding through on their way to other neighborhoods. also, id advise against dropping your air-conditioner out of your window.

Besides it being illegal to park on the sidewalk, there are a few other reasons not to do it. The weight of the cars jumping up onto the curb (and the down off it) will eventually break up the curb, which is very expensive to replace (even more expensive than replacing your sidewalk). Also, when cars park on the sidewalk, the roadway will be wider, and, as result, drivers will travel even faster. We’ve been doing a lot of research into traffic calming efforts along S. Braddock Ave. in Regent Square where I live. and everything we read says to encourage people to park on the street as much as possible…
