BNOB Commission

A lot of folks active in on-line forums for the Lakeview neighborhood outright freaked out when they heard that "light rail" was proposed for Lakeview. The BNOB's Urban Planning committee proposes to extend the Canal streetcar line from the Cemeteries to Robert E. Lee Blvd., via Canal Blvd. It's a good idea in theory, but making it a reality will be a tough challenge.
The code-word racists of Lakeview don't like the idea just at the mention of "light rail." Sad.
