one of my biggest problems with midtown is the east/west streets going through it.

currently there are 2 [[read: TWO) streets that you can drive on without turning that will connect you from West of the Lodge to East of I-75 [[Warren and Mack/MLK). Who the hell thought this would be a good idea?

on top of that MANY of the east/west streets within midtown constantly are shifting north and south, and there is no flow from block to block

here are just a few examples of Canfield and Selden streets

A big problem is the DMC campus. They don't allow a single street to cut through it and it made basically a giant mega-block on the east side of midtown

Another problem on the east side of midtown seems to be those giant suburb-esque developments near brush park and the DMC

If midtown wants to be fully walkable it would be nice to get some four-way intersections and not all these awkward 3 way ones where you're shifting north and south just to go east or west.

rant over.
