Sorry to jump the conversation back a couple days, but this jumped out at me. I've seen that proposal to cap the 101 in downtown, but I've never seen anything for the 110. Has anyone heard anything different? That gulf depresses the hell out of me and I sincerely feel for anyone who has to walk across those pedestrian bridges.

I's too bad that we have to think about such projects as fantasies. Capping the freeways whenever possible seems like one of the most effective ways you could possibly add to increase the urban, pedestrian character of downtown.
