Another objetive the BIA had towards the plaza is traffic congestion. Morton suggested committee members should take a close look at plazas 1.0 the east of Brock St. which he said have been the cause of traffic problemns in the area. Residents of the area also appeared at the meeting, questioning whether the building of the plaza would leave them any privacy. But a spokesman for Nard In- vestmnents, Kevin Tun- ney, saidi trees and the building itself, would act as a buffer between shoppers and" the* residents.
