Back to my favorite muse; the central corridor light rail project. Beyond this, you get a good example of the kind of urban sludge that this project will hopefully begin to erase. Despite being a major road between two large cities, University has somehow ended up with a kind of strip landscape, which is depressing beyond belief. Asphalt, chain restaurants, massive parking lots, terrible looking banks, and shopping centers set back absurd distances from the road.

It's a soul-sucking kind of landscape, one that might eventually be replaced by a much more friendly atmosphere for shoppers, drivers, transit riders, and pedestrians. Oh, and people living here too.
