I would argue for more of a boulevard design like the Rose Kennedy Greenway in Boston. Replacing 794 with a narrow 4-lane arterial on Clybourn St is a wasted opportunity to add park and public space, especially recreational areas (tennis, soccer, skate park, etc). Downtown neighborhoods like Third Ward are often very lacking in this kind of park space.
