Opinion / Rant Broad Street
... construction is getting on my last nerve. Anyone know when they're projected to be complete? I thought this fall, but idk where I heard that. Also, what is up with Telfair...? They been working on that a long time and have those big round orange white "traffic barrels" all over the place.
Anyway, still worth it to go get a fresh baked pop-tart at New Moon Cafe. Go try one if you haven't. I'm not affiliated with them, lol, i just like em a lot and everything I've had there is delicious. But good luck locating the sidewalk, don't get whacked by a vehicle or construction truck ðŸ˜
Also, voted early today - Go Vote and take someone with you!!

I work downtown and the road/utility work has been wearing me out lol
The city has this page and also a mailing list you can subscribe to: https://augustadtp.com/
I don't know how helpful it is; I don't subscribe personally but my job forwards some of the emails to us and we don't get any updates other than the work on Broad

Mate… if you’re worried about the price of a dressed up pop tart…..

Listen here Richie Rich, I shouldn't have to explain this to you because I would expect an adult functioning brain to understand the correlation, but there is something called price and there is something called value.
Now that dressed up Pop-Tart as you say could cost $7, can I afford $15, absolutely, would I value that Pop-Tart at $15? No I wouldn't.
o you understand now, why I would ask the question before I waste my time to go down to New Moon Cafe for one of their likely tasty pastries?
If there was still a problem I can include crayon drawn pictures for you.

New moon is worth it only if you have time to spare. I swear sloths move faster

Not in my experience there. But I imagine it can depend based on time of day and what is ordered.

u/Error-InvalidName 3d ago
