They'll end up with a few more than they had before. And tell him as well that riding northbound on 8th Avenue is not safe for children (my children are afraid of that route), and a detour all the way around the park is a little different for those traveling on their own power than it is for those with 200 horsepower provided by OPEC. Back in the day, there was no parking on the park side of PPW. There was a two-track trolley line in a private right of way adjacent to the park instead.
