When I was young, it was a 2 way street with an island in the middle, like Woodward. There also was short term metered parking, [[good luck!) on both sides of the street. Businesses began moving out shortly after the 67 Riots, because people stopped coming downtown, and business dropped off severly. When they decided to install the People Remover, because "every growing city had a monorail", they had hoped to revitalize the area by putting in what you see there, developing some apartment living, making it more walkable, and more user-friendly. [[monorail was going to save the area! We can connect different loops all the way to 8 mile!) The idea bombed, and you have the cluster #$@& you see in the photo.
