If you go to other banks, you have to own a lot of documents to get ready since the majority banks, whenever you loan or any sort of loan; they need some documents as requirements super real you don't get paid for one more week but something originates up and you may need help.

btw, parklets are the solution to nimbys who don’t want new parks built anywhere near themselves.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – if you were ever paying attention, there was plenty of ridership on the 26val – it just wasn’t ironic hipster ridership. Speaking of hipster, was there some kind of block on your iphone that prevented you from using nexbusdotDUH.

Parklets are awesome. I live just next to Ritual and think it would be great here. The sidewalk is already crowded with dogs, bikes, strollers, and other assorted hanger outers. A parklet would give people more room to hang out, drink their coffee without blocking the sidewalk. We already have homeless people on the block too. If they want to stand at a bistro table rather than sitting on my stoop, fine with me. In my opinion, an extra parking spot does not outweigh the benefit of everyone being able to use extra public space as a awesome, well-designed parklet. We lack outdoor space here. It would be great to be able to go outside to read the paper in the sun or catch up with friends without having to squat on the sidewalk or go into a business.

As much as I loved that line, no one seemed very interested in riding it. (Not that the utterly unpredictable frequency helped any.)

Well, the city did take away the 26 line, that much is true.

@Grinch: My point is that streets and sidewalks are public space. This strip could be used for auto parking, a parklet, bike parking, a bus stop etc. However it is allocated it is still “public space” , even if it has been dedicated to a particular use.

There are so many things wrong with your comment I hardly know where to start.

Every sentence except the last contains information that is demnonstrably untrue.

Yeah, I noticed the same glaring inconsistancies amongst the reasoning of Ritual’s owner. She bitched and moaned about Blue Bottle *and* American Apparel, but now that she needs something, all of a sudden she has a noble cause.

What’s that old saw about your cake?

Listening to 10 opponents while ignoring 41 proponents is what’s wrong with this city, at least in this case. I never said they couldn’t discuss it, and I’m not trying to “silence” anyone, what are you a drama major? NIMBY is an easy way to reference people who oppose “good” and “bad” shit in their backyard. A NIMBY could be a very sane, logical person who doesn’t want a WalMart in their backyard (would be pretty rad), or a parklet on their block (more rad). I’m just saying (and have said, re-read my comment word-for-word), that article is ridiculous. That was their lead/front page story in their print edition. Then in the fine print they say 10 fucking people oppose it? It’s a stupid fucking paper and it’s a stupid fucking article.

Are parking spaces considered “public space?” (That’s not me being rude, it’s an actual question!)

So The City takes away the 26 line and forces more people to drive. They create more parking spaces for those that drive to park, so the city can make more revenue. Now the are considering taking away said spots, politics as usual.

I hope this happens. The more of these little parklets the better off the city is.
