Abstract:

Increasingly, localities around the country are beginning to realize the importance of converting urban highways into streets, avenues, and boulevards. The initial focus has been on restoring downtown main streets. States leading this trend include New Jersey, Maryland, and California. The case studies discussed here, from Connecticut and Georgia, exemplify a second wave in this movement: the conversion of neighborhood highways into urban avenues. Details of case studies from West Hartford, Connecticut, and Savannah, Georgia, are discussed.
