This investigative report is continued from Monday's report.
Yes, I know that we could have hidden all of our reports subsequent to Monday's report for our Premium Subscribers only. We could have done that to "bait" our FREE Subscribers into upgrading their memberships. But we're just not sneaky enough and under-handed enough to pull something like that. Therefore, all five (5) reports in this series of reports will be available to everyone, even our lowly cheapskate FREE Subscribers who have not yet upgraded their memberships.
On my second day of walking (Tuesday, 5/11), I found the following street and sidewalk conditions:
- Guttenberg Street heading north from 5th Street to Wharf Street. - Sidewalks on both sides of street in excellent conditon. Concrete street surface in excellent condition. Street surface well sealed. This section of street should be the Gold Standard for all streets in Hermann but particularly for the historic downtown district as well as all main thoroughfares and arterial streets.
- Wharf Street heading west from Guttenberg Street to Schiller Street - Sidewalk on south side of street. Cracked and busted but surface is relatively level. Asphaltic street surface is patched, cracked and alligatored in a few spots.
