If we're gonna do these things, let's get 'em right.Of course, I am not saying that I agree with many of the stimulus plans, such as two bridges and the Opportunity Corridor. But repaving Woodland and MLK (and many other extant streets) with porous asphalt? Daylighting and restoring Doan Brook? Yes, let's roll up our sleeves. I also like the inspiring imagery [5] of a human powered towpath trail extension [6]; after we shore up the westbank of the Cuyahoga, that is.
