A Avenue

Landscaped medians were constructed where possible to soften the perceived barrier that this very wide street creates between two main commercial areas of the East End.  New sidewalk extensions a the corners serve to reduce the walking distance across the street, and special paving at crosswalks assist in improving the visual and psychological connection between the two sides of the street.  Additional amenities include benches, bike racks, ornamental streetlights, bollards, undergrounding of utilities, street trees, basalt seat walks, an obelisk with a fountain, and decorative planters.
