Description
I just returned by train to New Haven and the abundance of litter and weeds growing wild as I walked from the train station was disheartening to see. An awful first view of our city. Perhaps we can have a citizen clean up effort combined with the city focusing more energy in this area. Do we need more trash cans too?

and not find one for blocks. And worse, downtown you'll often see trash cans with full plastic bags of garbage lying on the sidewalk next to them, sometimes 2 & 3 bags.

Hi,
This is still a problem. I am hopeful it will improve:
1. Town Green is starting a program in May where they will provide job training to a group of folks which will include maintenance of this area.
2. DWSCMT / Yale Day of Service are having a work day on Saturday, May 10 (9 - 11:30 am) to clean up the area some. Everyone welcome to come and help.
If the City can do better street sweeping here though, that would be great.
