They should make Halsey pedestrian only - there’s no need for cars to drive through the tiny street.

Downtown Newark doesn't have anywhere near the residential population to support Halsey Street being pedestrian only. I only find out about new spots at Halsey when I happened to spot them by accident while waiting for the light. You make Halsey Street pedestrian only I guarantee you thousands of people will never set eyes on that street that would otherwise do so on their visit to Rutgers or NJIT having just gotten off 280.

10 minutes of fame for our struggling Halsey Street businesses before we continue business as usual in ignoring them and then feeling sad when the stores close.

See the ghost of 19B clothing + burger wallah.

It's a situation that alot of these businesses gotta try and holdout till these buildings get finished having people move in create more sidewalk traffic to sustain these businesses.
