I get why those houses have generous setbacks given the noise of the street, but as a pedestrian it is uncomfortable walking down a very narrow sidewalk which is pockmarked with telephone polls and signs, with blistering traffic on one side and weed filled back yards on the other. Not at all pleasant.
