Leslieville: in the Carlaw/Dundas E/Jones/Queen E. block

'Hoop and Post' Bicycle lock-up is so loose you can lift it out of the side walk easily.

I have no camera, so I took a Print Screen of the location in Google Maps, Street View and photo edited the image to indicate the Hoop and Post in question with a big red circle - http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hax2Uvft3VQ/UYiai9MbaiI/AAAAAAAAErY/-Xi1yu2wI1Y/s1600/Hoop_and_Post_beside_Stratengers_patio_is_easy_to_pull_out_of_the_sidewalk.jpg

Streetcars stop 7m from stop line at Jones on Queen eastbound. This blocks the street south and stops cars turning right onto queen from making a left turn. This is deliberate so as to accommodate buses turning west onto Queen from Jones. The problem is that the streetcars do it even if no buses are coming. The drivers are rude and non responsive to reason. This practice is illegal and must stop.

This condo development began 2 1/2 years ago but has sat unfinished for over a year now. Work on it ended abruptly and now it sits as an eyesore, rotting away in the neighbourhood.

It is reported on the Facebook Page I am a Lesievillian that every year for many years the 7-11 in Leslieville plows/shovels snow onto the sidewalk contravening the city by-law. It's time they were taught a lesson with a big fine.

There is a faulty parking meter that is stuck at 20.37pm. I could not get my credit card to work so I did not pay as it was the only one I could see. Of course I got a ticket (Parking BB567221) and I am sure that others also got it. The guy did not even check if the meter was working and I have to go to John street to try and cancel it?

The doorway area of Amato Pizza at 1056 Queen Street East has been repeatedly tagged

Carlaw just n. of Dickens near centre line.

The asphalt on Dundas St E in the eastbound bike lane approaching Jones Ave is extremely rough. I have to pull into the car lane to go around it. It is slippery in winter, with all the crevices and cracks filling with ice. And it's dangerous year-round, as cyclist get bounced off balance.

The south wall of the River Rock Cafe at 181A Carlaw Ave has been tagged at the second floor level. A sign on the building reads"181A Carlaw". The building is physically separate from and slightly south of 181 Carlaw Ave and adjacent to the entrance to 972A Queen Street East

The east wall of the Tasty Chicken House at 1014 Queen Street East has been defaced with graffiti vandalism which includes an obscenity

The west wall of 972 Queen Street East, beside the entrance to 972A, has been tagged
