Having a New Restaurant in Your Neighborhood
It has recently been announced that a new restaurant may be built inyour neighborhood. Do you support or oppose this plan? Why? Use specificreasons and details to support your answer.
I can see both advantages and disadvantages to having a newrestaurant built in our neighborhood. I'm worried about traffic and how itwill affect our neighborhood. However, I think that it will benefit localbusinesses and increase appreciation for our neighborhood. Overall, Ithink it is a good idea.
Traffic congestion is always a concern when you build something new.Our streets are narrow, with parking on both sides. More cars travelingthrough the neighborhood could cause a lot of congesting. Traffic meansparking problems, too. Our neighborhood has very few garages attached tothe houses. Most of us depend on finding a space to park on the street. Ifthe new restaurant is built, we'll be competing for those spaces with therestaurant's patrons. Plus, if the restaurant offers wallet parking, it'll beeven worse. Valet parkers work in teams to grab every possible spaceavailable on the street.
I'm also concerned about the type of patrons this new restaurant willbring into our neighborhood. A family restaurant wouldn't be a problem.However, if it's going have a bar and dancing, then there could beproblems. The restaurant would stay open later, and people leaving therestaurant might be drunk. Who wouldn't worry about rowdy customersstaggering around our neighborhood in the early morning hours, looking fortheir cars?
I have to admit, though, there are advantages to a new restaurant.Our neighborhood could certainly use the jobs the restaurant wouldprovide. Not only that, the money neighborhood residents would earn therewould likely be spent at other neighborhood businesses. This would give aboost to those businesses and make our neighborhood more prosperous.
A new restaurant would also attract a lot of people to ourneighborhood. They could see what a nice area this is to live.
That might attract new residents to the neighborhood. That would be a goodthing, because we've been losing residents to the suburbs the last couple ofyears.
There are a lot of details to consider, but all in all, I support the ideaof this new restaurant in our neighborhood.
