If the rumours are true about the Centre 10 retail proceeding across 5th Street from here it will be so strange to have an actual block of 10th Street "completed" and design in a way that reflects the streets modern purpose of an urban high-street.
I still wonder what it takes to get more controlled intersections and pedestrian crossings on 10th. Those decisions are so much more in the black-box and don't ever seem to happen.
It seems that most road planners seem to forget that 10th Streets primary pedestrian movements are north-south given it's location separating high-density jobs and rapid transit from high-density people. The lack of sidewalks, east-west signal priority and lack of crosswalks on many 10th Street intersections directly contradicts this reality.
I hope this development and others along the street helps wake people up to this.
