Just as long as they are not allowed to close any more streets.  A lot of us are still mad about the first street closure which should not have been done.

They are almost as bad as St. Vincent's Hospital, the hospital that ate Riverside, at gobbling up the neighborhood.  If they want to be a mega-church or duplicate Episcopal High School, then they should move to the suburbs too.

Is that map upside down or sideways? Or are they expanding west (or south) of Post Street?  Are the improvements all within the existing campus?

[thelakelander]

The right side of the image is north.  No additional streets are being closed from what I can tell.

Why the sidewalk gap along May St.??

Nice catch.  Hopefully, that gap is an oversight and will not be allowed.

It looks like they're just sprucing up the existing play area and adding lights to the basketball court.  According to google maps, there is not currently a sidewalk on that portion of May St, but a new one should be added.  As long as they don't totally wall of the area and turn their back on the street, I think it's a positive addition to their campus and the neighborhood
