ALT Picture from @Qaggggy of a group of people sitting in a tree-lined street plaza in 2019. A dozen or more people sitting at cafe tables talking to each other, with shops in the background. A few dogs relax with their owners. Restaurants sell things to eat and drink outside in the background.

ALT Picture from @typewriteralley of the same street after it was improved this year as a curb less street with lots of cars on it. A few people are being dropped off from one of the cars. A person in the distance bikes. No one sits at tables at this street. It's pretty sad in comparison to the before photo.

ALT People sitting together at small cafe tables talking on a street. some trees, some nearby commercial buildings, and a sign that says Mammon streeterie in the background with said outdoor dining cafe. A few people sitting outside have dogs. Qagggy says: During pandemic, we caught a glimpse of what Melrose could have been...a beautiful space full of people (and one or two dogs). https://twitter.com/Qagggy/status/1631917325824950273

ALT A large expanse of reddish brick with several cars and in the distance a person on a bike. Dense buildings with at-grade light shops. But no people visible on the streets. Same street at Pike and Melrose as previous. This photo taken by Ryan Packer, who says, What a failure this "raised crosswalk" at Pike and Melrose is. There's not really another word for it.
