From NOPNA President Jarie Bolander:
On Friday morning a pedestrian, James Hudson, was killed while crossing the street at the intersection of Turk & Masonic. Join your neighborhood in mourning the loss of yet another person at this dangerous corner. Let’s all come together to strengthen our efforts to make our streets safer. Your prayers for the departed and our community are welcome. A safety dialogue will follow the vigil.
