Ninth Street exists all the way to Clark, but is not currently open to traffic. 11th Place, just north of Roosevelt Park, was closed to vehicular traffic but never vacated. Same with Federal between 11th Pl. and Roosevelt.

The angled part of Park Terrace is technically Taylor St., and south of that, Park Terrace and Clark are actually a single public right-of-way. In 2002, I tried to persuade CDOT to create an opening there as part of the reconstruction of Clark St., but the bid package had already gone out calling for replacing the fence.



Legally, no—though of course a savvy alderman might give them one.
Yeah - I meant 9th street. That will teach me to post without having a map open. So, back to my question. Since 9th street was never vacated, does this mean the city could just open it? Those Town House people would go ape shit.
