Speaking of sidewalk cafes...
As you may recall, Westville East (WE) applied for a sidewalk cafe in the spring... and it didn't go so well.... the drama included posting a note on their door calling out their "mean-spiritied neighbors." (Doing so in a 29-word run-on sentence, no less!)
Anyway! Long story! And now WE has debuted the tables....
Oh, and there was more drama... we heard that Councilwoman Rosie Mendez intervened to help get the number of tables reduced for neighbors who are upset over the sidewalk cafe... (Updated 9:29 a.m.: Mendez's office confirmed this.)
Perhaps with fewer tables, WE can spring for some barriers to block out the ample pedestrian and vehicular traffic...

Barriers are required, and, they need to have a 3 foot aisle contained therein to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. They cannot have their servers waiting tables from outside the approved area.
I'm pretty certain the chewing gum on the sidewalk is not a good look. Is this typical for US cities? So sad you have to live in such surroundings. The cafe itself is a good idea.
