Ya know what would do the trick? The city needs to revoke the easements given to Sandburg Village that narrowed the sidewalks by about 50% all along Clark and LaSalle. Right now, it's single file if you're approaching someone comin' at ya. And good luck if there's a bicyclist on the sidewalk who's too ignorant to use the designated bike lanes (and there are plenty of them).
