A: Get rid of the bus stop in the slip road outside Starbucks. It really blights the Green having buses sitting there belching fumes and doesn’t make you want to linger! All of the other suggestion choices sound good. A lot of the shop front don’t look as good as they could. It would be good if more specialist shops opened perhaps targeted in the same way as they were by the Estate that manages Marylebone 15plus years ago and it transformed that area.
