In 2020, Witherspoon Street in downtown Princeton has been remodeled to create more space for pedestrian use and outdoor dining. Based on the success of this experiment, we - the residents of Princeton and surrounding areas - call on the Princeton Council to implement a permanent redesign for Witherspoon Street that puts people first. We support a Witherspoon Street that's safe and accessible to residents and visitors of all ages and abilities, a public place where we can enjoy art and music and everything that helps to define a vibrant downtown. With this redesign, we are more likely than ever to spend time in and around Witherspoon - dining, shopping, and gathering with friends and family. Many other locations have shown that people-friendly streets are good for business. And this will ensure that our downtown remains a unique and inviting destination for years to come.
