New sidewalks and trees for 26th Street
The residents of the row of new/renovated Better Housing Coalition houses on the 900 block of 26th Street have been delighted to have had sidewalks and street trees put in place. One resident said that, “I just got back in town last night after being away for a week and was totally amazed at the beautiful work”.

awesome. This is another way the city should be supporting organizations that try to turn some of these areas of neighborhoods. Sidewalks and trees typically get bumped for more *flashy* projects; but they can make some of the biggest impact. Great icing on the cake for a great BHC block.
Looks nice.
This looks great! I love the new trees as well. Hopefully the contractors will now be heading over to North 29th Street in the coming days to start on our sidewalk.
Same block in 2007
Looks great.
I agree, several blocks on 29th could use some help.
Will they be doing the 600 block of 29th as well?
Yes, both sides of the 500 & 600 block of 29th Street are planned to have new or repaired sidewalks installed. The new sidewalk is slated to be brick. Work was supposed to start in mid June, but I presume the contractors are running a bit behind.
