BusStop. Bay View Neighborhood Association Loves Our Bus

Four Mondays in August Bay View neighbors will do the unthinkable. They will gather for coffee and caffeinate their minds with the intention of riding the bus downtown. Surely there are rules against this: Car owners boarding buses? Leaving the car at home? "Un-American" is what jock radio will say about Bay View.

Last August when Bay View riders rode -  four Mondays at 7 a.m. - it stirred the County Board into an hour of consternation.

Now, the County Sheriff has been alerted for rowdy commuters; Milwaukee police squads will cruise bus stops for signs of unruly passengers, wearing - you know - that gangland side-ways baseball cap.

Bay View nervously awaits these Mondays mornings and the rowdy street parties. Revelers are said to be ready to welcome the coming of Route 15 from the Deep South Suburbs.
