Great to see St. John's council working on lane closures for social distancing. As a phase 2, as we head into summer, would love to see these kind of approaches (and the waived fees!) brought in here.

Did you miss our public forum and design contest? Join one of our board members on this online Jane's Walk and visit some of the libraries people in St. John's dreamed up. Sunday morning at 10!
