I was told a few weeks ago that my building would be getting bike racks, that it was only a matter of figuring out where to put them. Today my coworker heard from the building manager that they are only beginning to figure it all out. So, I sent the mgr an email suggesting the possibilities, starting with a storage room indoors, bike lockers, down to unprotected bike racks. I also acknowledge that space is a problem but suggested that they could use one of the spaces that are semi-obstructed by lightposts since they are undesirable spaces for cars, especially the one right behind the guard shack.

Does anyone have suggestions for how to handle the management so that they see the need and utility of bike racks?
