Dear Fashion District Property Owner,
Now that Spring has arrived, we begin the daunting task of trimming the 801 trees in the Fashion District. We have signed a contract with Trimming Land Company, and you should expect to see them in the District within the next week or two.
The arrival of Spring, a lessening of COVID restrictions and an increase in vaccines are all resulting in an increase in pedestrian activity. The peak day for the Santee Alley, one of our most busy areas, was Saturday, March 27th with 9300+ pedestrians traveling through the intersection (an increase of 12% from the month before). Speaking of vaccines, the BID partnered with the Mayor’s Office the past two weeks in assisting with setting up vaccine appointments in the Flower District. We hope to see these mobile sign-up efforts spread to other parts of the District in the coming weeks.
