    I sure hope the roadway will be rebuilt as it used to be. Such a pretty drive, up or down. There are at least 8 walking paths along Lake Park. This should be the wonderful two lane road it used to be. I have heard that many of the “Friends” don’t want that. They offer solutions for something that never was a problem.

    I also am for bringing back the road to automobile traffic. Although its winding nature already forces drivers to slow down, putting in 2 or 3 speed humps would also help discourage speeders.

    Graphic designer and neighbor Rebecca Silber played a key role in personally advocating for the bridge’s restoration through a website she created. It served as a clearinghouse with relevant information and resources, including about the process of historic preservation, available grants, etc.
