Re: RE
Having the unique experience of living in the only "residential" building on Gould and working evenings and weekends on Gould, I've always opposed a full-fledged closure of the street. The area does get extremely dead during evenings and weekends in an area that is populated by a mixture of students and crackheads. Closing the street would create a huge dead zone, and since Ryerson's #1 solution for dead zones is high-intensity lighting I fear what would become of the street.
Serious consideration should be given to closing the street 8am - 8pm, Mon - Fri, Sept - May.
