^ Yeah, I remember getting instructions to my rented dwelling when I first moved here.... "You go through a dozen or so traffic lights, make a hard right at the T intersection, make a 180 degree left, follow the road down there hill to the intersection, turn right, cross the bridge, turn right again, go up to the top of the hill, turn right again.. etc etc"
Having been in cities with major thoroughfares landing right downtown I can't say I like what that does to a city. But I do think the obvious choice was to go underground at about 79 st, pop out the side of the valley and land right about where the north bridge approach is now. Another question would be, are they going to use the berms that are in place for this very purpose already on the north side of the river ?
I still can't figure out what the OSBA argument was. To much traffic ? Not enough traffic ? What ?
