Creating an exit or intrance through this area would -equire only three things: --transplanting the shrubbery --moving the basketball goals to mother location -removing a sufficient portion of he brick wall presently lining the jreen Street sidewalk, enough for )oth passage of vehicles and ample ,'isibiiity Such a rearrangement would have two disadvantages: --those who use the basketball L'ourt would be inconvenienced -the pedestrians going from Petigru to Russell House would lave a second lane of traffic to :ross The second point deserves comment.

Secondly, the other two alternatives (the Woodrow-Preston driveway and a two-way PrestonCoker driveway) are decidedly unsatisfactory. Thus, it seems the solution to this problem lies in formation of a driveway from the east end of the parking area to Green Street, possibly coordinated with the present Petigru parking lot. Making this driveway (or the lower Petigru driveway) the advantage of making all turns right turns. r urinermore, 11 nas noi escaped my attention that future closing of Green Street between Bull and Sumter Streets would not eliminate this parking area.
