Yeah, the first thing I think of is 7 Ave SW, but 36 St NE is definitely a worst case scenario that I don't see the City doing again.

I'm not so sure. 17th SE is almost exactly the same approach as 36st: All stops located between direction lanes, dedicated ROW down middle of roadway, priority transit signals. I keep beating this drum, but transit that interferes so much with other traffic is the worst of both worlds. And I hope 7th ave isn't an example, half the buildings on the west side, particularly those most suited to pedestrian traffic, are empty.
I hope I'm wrong, but I don't have much hope for this development.
