There are a few more eyesores that I can't remember specifically but I think building some truly dense multi use buildings would help blend the historical houses a lot nicer than the bland concrete next to them. It's a bit of a depressing and uninspiring little stretch in downtown until you hit 7th st where those beautiful houses are. I feel it's gonna be even more noticeable once this 800-900 ft tower goes up.

There is a CVC from the sunken bandshell in Wooldridge Square that makes some of those lots virtually unbuildable.
