you'd have to buy a bunch of buildings and tear them down, which could be done, but kind of unnecessary when you have cortland ave so close already.

these buildings are not part of LY today and you are getting into hard core NIMBY land of Lincoln Park

and again, kind of an unnecessary expense when you look closely at a map of the area

Found this earlier in this thread Slide 13 details the plans for an extension of Armitage over the river and has a diagram.
