More Coffee to King St.?

[Rob68]

Riverside as a whole. The area is more than just the King Street Bad Parking and Smashed Side Mirror District.

When is someone going to push for the return of oneway streets around all of the fucking parking clutter...im sick of assholes pushing their way through and those who just cant drive or park their car properly..sometimes I just want to bulldoze mtself through the clusterfuck...it was much safer and easier when college and post were oneway streets..

Fortunately, it's easy to avoid as there are plenty of side streets. Unfortunately, all of this mess is on 3 major arteries in the neighborhood. It really does look like RAP is going to rest on their laurels and say "I told you so" about the parking issue. Once Guzzlebeers and Greasyworks parking is finished, it's going to fill up with patrons of other establishments. But, "such is the price of progress". Right? Right?

Actually in an urban environment it is, yeah. Parking by & large in Riverside is still a hell of a lot easier & non-restricted than it is in most cities I've been to. You can park your car on any side street, walk to wherever you want & not have to worry about being towed or ticketed. The horror!

I think what most people bitch about is not having drive-up parking to wherever they're going (which is such a minor issue). If the day ever does come where parking is such an issue anywhere in the core, side streets or otherwise, sounds to me like a good argument for better public transit & better biking infrastructure.

Hopefully never.  We don't need to turn the area back into a racetrack for people who are late for work.  It is really not that hard to navigate and it helps to keep vehicle speeds low which is good for other modes - peds and bikes.

Cool conversation about a coffee place on King Street, guys!

Much safer when College and Post were one-way raceways? For who? Certainly not the residents. The necessity to drive slow through a crowded street is also what keeps it safe for drivers. So you had to wait an extra 15 seconds to get down the street instead of driving 50mph down a residential street? Rob, I sure hope you're never in a public policy position. The neighborhood is doing better than it has been for decades and you'd like to reestablish the policies that made it a dangerous no-man's-land. Sweet.

BREW serves espresso drinks and cold brew during all open hours. I'm assuming by plain coffee you mean drip coffee?

Yup! That's why I gave it a half. In the morning it is a coffee shop. After that it is a beer bar and specialty coffee shop. It's a great place, but if I want a regular old cup o joe after work, I can't head there.
