This is 42nd Street and yes, it is a bike lane.

I checked with the City of Florence and they comfirmed that. Now it would be really nice of the City to mark every bike lane in town. Not everybody "knows" that a bike lane is not a place to park cars.
On Saturday, April 25th a firetruck was packed on Kingwood Street in the bike lane, right in front of the crematory. Two things are infinite: the universe and human ignorance; and I'm not sure about the universe.
