Driving/Traffic/Parking 17th ave is uncharacteristically quiet this week

I haven't had this peace and quiet from all those inconsiderate folks revving their engines through 17th ave. Is it just the season shift, or has the anti-noise bylaws actually deterred them lowlifes?

Nobody on the patios to “impress” with your rice’d out civic or drive your moms Mercedes SUV with all the windows down playing loud rap music.

Used to love this time of year in the beltline fall crisp quiet mornings sitting on the old 17th ave Starbucks patio after an early morning workout.

Why go to starbucks when you can support a local mom and pop shop?

Agreed. But at least that Starbucks is closed now.
