There IS NO at grade option for downtown, without removing 4th, 5th, 6th, or 9th as an automobile road.
Elevated is possible, but with the +15 network, that has to be TWO levels above ground, and that a BAD idea for many reasons. The city studied this thoroughly. There is NO other option than tunneling.
