Description
I live on Waverly Street in the Heights. My family, along with my fellow neighbors, are requesting that the intersection of Baldwin Ave and Waverly Street receive some type of crosswalk safety light. As you can see in the aerial photo the intersection is located within the middle of a heavily traveled, 2 way curved street (Baldwin Ave), creating blind and very dangerous crosswalks.
One option with minimal cost is the push button cross-walk sign with LED blinking lights – see attached picture of this type of sign located on Palisade Ave by Sgt Anthony Park.
Please help us with this before someone gets hurt.

What was installed were standard cross-walk signs. What is needed are the LED signs where you push a button and the signs blink. This is a very dangerous intersection along a curve where cars fly by.
The installed signs do nothing, as everyone knows. CArs do not see or care about these signs. Please install the blinking signs which was the requested.
thank you
