Here it is, the new title holder for newest stamp in the blog, from the southwest corner of East Kalamazoo Street and Mifflin Avenue. This piece of sidewalk has been installed recently as part of a construction project on Kalamazoo; I think it is related to upgrading the sewer there. Across Mifflin there is a newly constructed curb cut but, as yet, no further sidewalk. This is consistent with how it was before; the curb cut on the other side of Mifflin has always led only to a parking lot, but it’s a much more substantial curb cut now, at least.

It’s interesting to see MacKenzie pop back up, since the only other stamp I have collected from them – I assume it’s them – is from 2003 and in a different style. I like how huge the date is in this one, although I worry it’s a bit too shallow to ensure enduring readability. At least city sidewalk projects aren’t all failing to put names upon the walks lately.
