Pedestrian access to businesses with no street frontage works really well here and could be a model for dealing with similar unique situations elsewhere in Ardmore.

As this area of Ardmore redevelops, we should consider pedestrian crosswalks such as the pedestrian-controlled crosswalk near Tropico on Lancaster Avenue.

In addition to the other comments on increasing/promoting pedestrian use of the bridge, lets beautify the bridge! Are there ways to shade some or all of it? This bridge serves as a nice counterweight to the Station Ave "Ardmore" underpass, and could be similarly beautified.

Bit of an awkward intersection as cars turn quickly off of Lancaster Ave onto Argyle Rd

We should consider replicating this type of pedestrian-controlled crosswalk elsewhere on Lancaster Avenue, since it functions well as both a traffic calming tool and pedestrian safety enhancement.

Sidewalks need to be clear of obstructions and encumbrances. Planters used to buffer pedestrians from traffic and to prevents mid-block crossings. Brick should be replaced with a tree trench for more trees.

The alley is a great place for pedestrian respite, and add a lot of charm and character to Ardmore. We should encourage beautification of our alleys.

Crosswalk here- where people naturally cross. Human led design!

Better lighting and art in the pedestrian underpass to make it feel more comfortable. Also consider a bike wheeling ramp for the stairs to make it easier to use the connection with a bike.

Visually tie Cricket and Rittenhouse together, trees, lights planters and patterned crosswalks.

The street scale is out of proportion on Rittenhouse. More canopy trees to reduce heat island and lights to fill-in the space. Remove the individual parking meters and go with centralized pay centers. Reduce on street parking, increase size of corner pocket green space and outdoor gathering eating areas. Reduce Rittenhouse to a one-way.

Access corridors between buildings to rear parking lots should be lit with festival lighting, plants, benches, maybe wall art - more welcoming.
