In the Spring, patio space takes over a lot of the curbside lane. In essence widening the sidewalk. And there is a large stretch of Commercial that is 4 lanes.
As far as complete, I would put Mt. Pleasant ahead of Commercial Drive, even though Mt. Pleasant emerged quite a bit later than Commercial. More nightlife options than Commercial. Mt. Pleasant is more densely populated than Commercial, so that's probly why it has surpassed it.
