让我让你与这种情况一起出现：这是下午4点，你可以看到空气中的湿度，你的车没有空调，你一直在突然交通上徘徊，因为似乎永远是什么。\ nit在星期五下午的芝加哥交通，但不是。我实际上是描述了布卢明顿，其蓬勃发展的街道和建筑施工。\ nbefore我到了这里，我有朋友警告我的建筑，但我没有为我看到的东西做好准备。布卢明顿看起来好像在战争的后果中重建。在这里正在建造的建筑物正在勃起，道路正在镇上建造。这么多随机项目一次都会发生，即城市或校园的任何区域都是安全的。\ nit似乎那些规划建筑项目的人将地图连接到飞镖栏，并开始投掷飞镖。无论那些飞镖降落在地图上，他们计划建立新的东西或翻新一些老东西。我可以想象一定是游戏的一个地狱。\ nit对重建基础设施并鼓励新的建筑保持在最前沿的重要性。 I understand that. But did we really need to do so many projects all at once? \nSome projects are being orchestrated by the city and some by the University, and they each have different agendas. Still, they could have done something to make things less hectic. Bloomington is a beautiful place; unfortunately, I'm not going to see it in its entirety while I'm here. As a freshman, I had one semester construction-free. From that point on, construction vehicles, closed roads and orange barrels with flashing lights have dominated the campus and city. My college years will be remembered with images of front-end loaders, cranes, bulldozers, torn up grass and other sure signs of construction.\nAt least it will look great when I come back to visit. Unfortunately, I won\'t recognize the place I have called home for the past four years.\nThe construction has not just affected the students and residents. The businesses on Kirkwood have had a hard time getting customers, because many went elsewhere rather than battle the noise of machinery and construction-zone traffic. But whatever reason customers had for avoiding Kirkwood Avenue and other construction areas this summer, it has made it hard for stores to make ends meet.\nIf the University and city had just started one project at a time and completed each before starting another, it might not have caused such a disturbance in a place that is usually peaceful. From what I understand, this is just the tip of the iceberg; IU and Bloomington have yet to start construction of the graduate business school, turn 10th Street into a one-way street or widen the 45/46 bypass near College Mall. Will there ever be an end to this construction boom?\nLike I said, that must have been one hell of a dart game.
