Dave @dtpennington.com · May 21 A modest proposal for Asheville citizens and leadership: let's close some streets. Seriously. This week Laughing Seed Cafe announced they were closing. They are located on Wall Street, downtown, which is an area that is losing all kinds of business. @asheville.bsky.social

100% agree. Should have started with Wall St decades ago.
The thing is, Wall Street is kinda neat. It is nestled in between historic buildings and has a very old-World feel. The thing is: weekdays and anytime after 7 pm the place is *empty*. It's kinda spooky and usually populated with unhoused people camping.
This should've happened years ago. You'd think in a city that prides itself on it's progressiveness, we would have led the way. Not so much I guess, but better late than never. @kimroney.bsky.social
