I think it would be great to have that triangle filled.

I do too, I just didn't want it done with a one story building. I wish all six corners were built as close as possible to the sidewalk.

I would like to see some street parking. I do not see the point of having a middle turning lane on walker.

I'll say this - for a city with a grid street network, the roads are all screwed up. Walker takes the cake but a close second is the new boulevard that will only have one street connecting to Bricktown (Oklahoma Ave) and that street doesn't connect to Deep Deuce. What a mess. Brings new meaning to the phrase 'you can't get there from here'.

Just the facts, we agree on many topics. There are very few streets that run 2 ways through downtown and out the other side. Maybe Sheridan is the only one.

Do you agree street parking on Walker would be helpful?

Yes Walker should have on-street parking and it is possible even with limited room. In places where there is only room for one lane of on-street parking they could put it all on one side of the street or even put parallel parking in the middle of the street and allow cars to park in both directions (instead of a center turn lane). I also like "skinny streets' but that is not possible on Walker due to the volume. A skinny street is one with two rows of parking (one on each side) and a single two-way lane down the middle.

Center lane parallel parking:

Walker, Hudson and Robinson will be 2-way soon? That makes me happy.
