Adding unnecessary lights at 19th Ave? Check
Taking out 2 lanes of traffic on a thoroughfare; such that now a single car waiting to make a left hand turn will clog all of 37th St? Check
Adding intersection bump outs at 19th, 26th Aves seemingly just to further confound and impede traffic patterns and increase congestion & people cutting through the side residential streets? Check

What crack are you guys smoking? You know the end result is 37th will still be two lanes each way, right? And they're going to plant hundreds of new trees along the boulevard when they're done, right?
