Washington St - Water St - Front St

There are long time residents of DUMBO who are not happy with the pedestrian only zones. These zones need to be open to vehicle traffic during rush hours (before 10am and then 4pm - 7pm) so that residents' cars, deliveries and emergency vehicles may pass unimpeded. Those who are calling for DUMBO to be an all pedestrian zone are either not residents or simply not informed about how a city works. Now, exiting the entire neighborhood at peak hours is an absolute nightmare because just outside of the neighborhood boundaries are ramps for entries & exits to bridges and the BQE - we need roads to drive on to simply get our families OUT (or into) of the area without waiting in a standstill queue with vehicles that are bridge or highway bound... one way streets need to be re-thought and made two way streets, pedestrian zones catering to TOURISTS and not RESIDENTS need to be re-thought with the needs of the people who live here and pay taxes coming FIRST.

Bridge St - Front St - York St

The street is too narrow for two way traffic - the new sidewalk is too wide and parked or standing vehicles make roadway too narrow. Traffic is reduced to one land with cars jockeying for who will pass.

Washington St - Plymouth St - Water St - Brooklyn

This should remain closed to cars. It's basically a tourist destination and having cars there makes no sense.

The sidewalk around the Olympia building is in very bad shape and difficult to navigate by wheelchair or with a stroller.

Elizabeth Pl - Old Fulton St - Doughty St

The sidewalk is not navigable. It is too narrow and often full of trash from the restaurants.

Ban cars in all of dumbo. Making this pedestrian only would dramatically improve the neighborhood

Jay St - Front St - York St

consider re-working this light. Lots of peds crossing York when driving south down Jay St and makes it very difficult to turn right from Jay to York. Ends up backing up a lot of traffic.

consider putting a stop light here. Lots of pedestrian traffic makes it difficult for cars to move.

Jay St - York St - Prospect St

Make Jay St two way again between York and Prospect to help get vehicles out of the neighborhood. Can move the Citibike bike corrals to the green space north and south of the BQE on the east side of the block.
