  • 309 Datura Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Seems like a no-brainer to plant trees where the streets are already configured for it. This should be done ASAP.
  • 300 Clematis Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    This afternoon an under skilled driver turned the wrong direction on olive (south) on the one way street trying to make a right from clematis. After being honked at he stopped, put the car into reverse and rear ended a police car that was behind him and also began honking at him. The police got out of the car, spoke to the under skilled driver for 10 seconds, got back in the police car, parked and went to lunch. They did not bother checking to see if the driver had a license, was using alcohol or drugs, nor checking for warrants or insurance. Unacceptable. Keep these drivers out of our backyard.
  • 254-298 Evernia Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    First ticket logged on this issue but I expect many more to come. This is particularly egregious with markings covering brick pavers. There's plenty of this marking all over Clematis street and in other very heavily trafficed areas of our downtown. I know that some of this has been Discussed in the past but what do we need to do to get these markings removed and prevent them as much as possible in the future?
  • 421 South Dixie Highway West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach

    This looks like something from George Orwell's book "1984". What happens inside here? Waterboarding? Psychological torture? What sorts of nefarious activities are going on inside this impenetrable concrete bunker?

    In all seriousness, this sort of architecture, which I believe is known as "Brutalism", has NO PLACE in a walkable city.

    Former Mayor Nancy Graham sold tickets in order to implode the blighted hotel that sat on what is now the Meyer Amphitheater....search it.

    Neighbors, please pile on and share! Tweet, Facebook, email this ticket!

  • 301 Datura Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Water pours out of this building. It's been vacant for at least 6 years.
  • 100 Datura St West Palm Beach, Florida - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Palm tree cut down on southeast corner of Datura St at S Flagler, adjacent to the Meyer Amphitheater and across from Bradley's. I can see no reason why a huge shade tree couldn't be planted here.
  • Olive Ave @ Fern St West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
  • 601-631 Fern Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Bikes crowd this area and make it hard to access the stairs. Would be a really good spot for some bike racks. lots of people bike to publix.
  • 104 South Clematis Street West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Lots of homeless are starting to congregate there and my boss saw a fistfight yesterday. It's not welcoming to walk past. Very poorly lit.
  • 200-248 South Narcissus Avenue West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Trip/hall hazard ESP at night when walking dogs - in front of strand on narcissus side near meyers bathrooms
  • City Place And Clematis West Palm Beach, FL - Downtown West Palm Beach
    Skate boarding on sidewalks
  • 575 South Rosemary Avenue West Palm Beach, FL 33401, USA - Downtown West Palm Beach
    This is a no-brainer. Where you have a transit stop, you put benches. Lots of users aren't the most able - bodied (elderly, with baby, etc) Benches are necessary at every stop.
