I can't see anyone wanting to live ON Cannon with the current street design. I once did. I didn't have a conscious appreciation for urban form back then, but I do remember it being hard to back out of the driveway due to the volume and speed of traffic. Now that I think about it, walking places wasn't much fun either.

The plethora of automotive and other low-value-added land uses along Cannon is of course as much of a problem, but this works in synergy with bad street configuration to keep the street undesireable for all but the most utilitarian uses.
