East Market

I did a brief walk of the newly opened stretch of East Market Street that was closed to remove the I-65/60 ramp. The area is opened up, completely connects to the near east side, and is much more walkable. I'm sure within the next couple of days or weeks, a much more qualified blogger will do a much more complete analysis of this project.

I have the highest hopes that this upgrade will help wipe away this image that this area has developed over the years.


The next two shots are taken at the intersection of College and Market...If anyone remembers how this place used to look, its quite an improvement. It was a dangerous intersection for pedestrians and motorists alike. Unfortunately, I do not have any before shots.

Some new sidewalks and modern homeless-proof benches...

This old railroad bridge received a face lift; rusted and crumbling no more!

It is also illuminated at night...
