It is my hope that this summer jazz concert series will help generate additional street traffic on E Hartsdale Ave, helping the merchants!

Let's see how busy Saturday will be in Hartsdale by the Railroad Station.

*Jazz Concert (taking up how many spaces?)
*Cybermobile (taking up 3 parking spaces)
*Farmer's Market (taking up how many parking spaces)
*Two trains running in each direction per hour (cars and taxis)
*Starbucks
*New Crosswalk (visitors from afar)
*Parking Garage (access and exit)
*Pipeline Road (traffic to and from Edgemont)
*Scarsdale Country Club

I'm sure that the Police Department will dedicate uniformed personnel to see that no residents are killed or maimed with all this happening concurrently. Especially with all the shopping going on.

Yours truly suggested the Concert should be held on the other side of the tracks (northbound). But the Town is big on collecting potential liability lawsuits.
