[Uptown] Erb/Bridgeport/Caroline/Albert Reconstruction
#56
On the expressway.

Designing a city is full of tradeoffs - and I find both the car-centric and pedestrian-centric advocates are generally selfish and want everything their way.  The current design of Bridgeport and Erb allows foot traffic.  It's not ideal but its not dangerous.  And it seems like there are a few changes that could be made that could make it friendlier.

But yes, sometimes we sacrifice a friendly environment for people on foot for a better experience for people in cars.  And vice versa.
