Nice pics. It's good to hear that there is some investment by developers in the Lafayette Park area. Now if only they could fill in 375 to connect the neighborhood back to downtown. Haha, if I had it my way, all the freeways around downtown would be capped, and I-375 would be filled in and the original street grid would be restored. I know I'm dreaming, but it's a thought.

It's a good dream.

It's a good dream.

Yeah. One thing I think needs to be done is capping I-75 through downtown. Downtown and midtown would both be better off if the freeway wasn't separating the two.
