No, I think Phishtown probably hit the nail on the head - some sort of permeable paver will connect the street curb to the sidewalk (you can kind of see the 4-6" lip in the lower left).
That is North Broad. South Broad is fine. This in progress street looks fine to me, and I would hope they determined that forthcoming destruction will not interfere with or kill the trees before planting them. We will see. Maybe they will landscape the grassy-looking area surrounding each tree. Far better than pavers. Or put mulch or decorative metal grates, both of which ARE seen in other areas of the city. Suburban... Everyone needs to calm down.
