I honestly don't think that the sketch is very accurate. How would it be possible to fit all of those things in the existing space?
In the before image, there are 4 road lanes on the right side, 2 on the left for a total of 6, and a very small median separating the two directions. But in the after picture, they've managed to keep 4 of the 6 roads lanes, and turn 2 of them and the thin median into 2 streetcars lanes, a center sidewalk, a grass strip as wide as the current median on each side of the sidewalk, AND two strips of trees each as wide as the current median
And added all of this without actually widening the road, since all the building show just as much space in front of them and still show a sidewalk on each side.
So where is the room for the center walkway, two grass strips, and two strips of trees coming from?
