Actually putting them on the mall may reduce the overtime fees. <p>But I&#39;d rather see better usage patterns than profit. Also, a lot of tourists just don&#39;t care -- it is a nice way to spend $20 or $30.</p> http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/14094/capital-bikeshare-comes-to-the-mall-already/#comment-134087 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 13:49:31 EDT http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/14094/capital-bikeshare-comes-to-the-mall-already/#comment-134086 I think that if tourists day- and week memberships make CaBi more profitable and self-sustaining, put plenty on the Mall! <p>There ought to be, however, some dedicated bike space on the Mall, Constitution, and Independence in order to better facilitate and manage the new influx of bikes (not to mention the existing presence).</p> http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/14094/capital-bikeshare-comes-to-the-mall-already/#comment-134086 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 13:44:34 EDT http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/14094/capital-bikeshare-comes-to-the-mall-already/#comment-134078 While not directly "on" the Mall, I was so glad to see the enormous new station at Independence and Maryland directly across from the Air and Space Museum. I&#39;ve been using it every day and see many folks - both (what look like) professionals and tourists using it. I have a feeling that&#39;s going to be a really popular stop - until they break ground on the Frank Gehry Memorial. http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/14094/capital-bikeshare-comes-to-the-mall-already/#comment-134078 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:55:55 EDT
