The gate townhouse development is indeed both understandable given the context of the time (peak urban crime wave), and unfortunate given changed circumstances today. But there is still so much that can be done around it, so for now, I am OK it staying an anomaly.
Yeah, I think there's been discussion here on and off over the years about how a continuation of Shady over the busway to Broad could really be key to true connectivity/revitalization of Larimer.

And agreed on the Village of Shadyside... it's there, it's been there for 30+ years, and it's definitely not going anywhere. And for god's sake, it's not that bad. It's not like it's some huge impediment to redesign of the area. The strip mall across the street... let's focus on that.
