While I’m at it, Ethel should cross from Howell Mill (near Brady) to Hampton east of Northside, if not all the way back to Techwood Parkway paralleling the connector.
Watkins should extend north from edgehill Ave to 14th st.
Extend Image Ave due north to 14th st to parallel the prior mentioned extension, presuming AHS sells/redevelops.
Atlanta has a lot of opportunity for common sense street grid extensions that will provide more active street presence, create shorter distances for bike/ped, and improve vehicular flows.
