This idea could pair well with some kind of circulator trolley (as seen elsewhere on this web site). Also, if there were a way to also re-connect the two halves of 18th street (across the train tracks), that could provide additional pathways for future bus and car routes toward Michigan Ave., and the Red and Green lines at 22nd street.
