As mentioned back in October, Freewheel Bikes petitioned the city to have a bike-themed parklet installed outside the shop on Valencia and 20th. And they apparently succeeded! I guess they didn't get the clear to make it bike-themed with a repair area built into the parklet, but it's got hella flora and astroturf, which is a nice upgrade from the one on 22nd. Unlike the one on 22nd, there isn't a bunch of complimentary businesses around this parklet for people to spill out of, so it'll be cool to see if this actually gets as much usage.
