A good idea, but wrong street.

I agree there. Memorial is a major road. I don't mind the idea of a pedestrian prominade much like 16th Street in Denver CO, just that considering that there are hardly any businesses on Memorial drive I don't see how it could accomplish the goals set out. I think it would be better if we set something up downtown or nearby that was a pedestrian street 24/7 in the spring/summer months so that new/existing businesses and other services could adapt and set up shop. 5 days a year is hardly something that a business model can be built around.
