Description

And so it begins, again. Of 10 cars parked between 138 Bradley and State Street right now, a residential Zone 3 posted area, four lack residential parking permits -- and the new restaurant, Disha, is barely open yet. I testified at their ZBA hearing last fall about the parking problems the series of (subsequently failed) restaurants at this location have posed for Bradley Street residents for the past 17 years, to no avail. The Zoning Board still finds it appropriate to approve exceptions for restaurants with no access to parking, two such restaurants adjacent to each other in this case (Boiling Soho and Disha). Not only does it present a hardship for the occupants of numerous multi-family homes with no driveways in this section of Bradley Street, it dooms restaurant after restaurant to failure. How is this fair to anyone? Again I ask you to please enforce residential parking rules in this area during evening hours.
