^ OK, thanks guys. I appreciate the info / clear ups.

At risk of being labeled a car-loving, solar system-destroying NIMBY, I want to say that this closure of a major thoroughfare looks like an absolutely idiotic idea to me. It's going to create an insane nuisance for very little benefit, in my opinion.

Many of the shoppers going to the Milwaukee Corridor take Kennedy there and get off at either Division or Augusta, and then head toward Milwaukee. I can already see the misery now. It's a serious case of biting the hand that feeds.

Noble Square (the actual square) has tons of other problems to deal with... traffic seems to be hardly the most pressing.

Also, ardecila, I was suggesting the photos for the benefit of the other forumers who don't get to see these projects. I am in that area every day, so I have a pretty good knowledge of what's going on.
