I think they did the finish work on at least the first block below
Baltimore several days ago, at least the jack hammer part.
I saw a contractor staple a sign on a little tree on 4600 Hazel.
The big question is, why are they repaving in the first place? If they
really wanted to spend money for improvements, how about redoing the
sidewalks instead?

I spoke with the contractor who's been ripping up our streets. He
said they will be finished with 46th North of Baltimore today and will
begin again on 46th South of Baltimore on Monday. He asked that
people don't park on 46th South of Baltimore next week. I did not
clarify with him whether they are finished with all streets North of
Baltimore or just 46th.
I also brought up the issue of stapling signs to trees. He said he
used to work with an arborist and was told that stapling signs to
large trees does not harm the trees but stapling signs to small trees
is a problem. Thus he's been having his crew not staple signs to
small trees. I pointed out to him that whether he's right or not (I'm
no expert so I have no idea), many of the neighbors are upset over the
stapling of signs to any sized tree. He understands and said he will
ask his crew to not staple signs to any trees.
He also pointed out that his contract is to just rip up the street.
The city is apparently responsible for the repaving. Thus in the near
future we can expect the city to come through, put up new signs, and
then pave.
Please spread the word about the SOBA stretch of 46th....
Take care,
Doc
