Dear Mr. Valenta:
With the full realization that parking is always a problem and will
continue to always be a problem, I think traffic flow is perhaps as
much of a problem, and it would seem probable that in the near future
it would be appropriate to close Eleventh Street to parking. That is,
at least in the immediate block of the hospital, and probably in the
block west of the hospital.
This would not only expedite traffic moving to and from Mary Greeley
Hospital, but without the obstruction of cars, it would also make the
flow of traffic easier coming from our parking lot onto Eleventh Street.
I am most reminded of this today when, with the snow on, and the snow
somewhat obstructing the yellow signs, people again are parking right
up to the exit from our parking lot, and makes the entrance onto Eleventh
Street hazardous.
If I can be of any assistance to you in this planning, I'll be happy to
do so.
Sincerely
yours,
John Doran, M.D.
