This rendering is assuming a two-way transportation route, which would congest 9th ave pretty much every day of the week heading into town. Assuming you don't allow parking on this eastbound two-lane road, there would be next to no foot traffic there.
Even if it was kept as a one-way eastbound route, street-level pedestrian traffic just wouldn't work as well; someone alluded to the fact that it is practically feels like a highway. Not the most pleasant area to walk around.
