DuMont's Fourth Street sidewalks

Yesterday's post showcased the reopening of The DuMont's Mass Ave sidewalks. But many may wonder why does Fourth Street look like crap?


The asphalt and elevated curb are temporary fixtures until Fourth Street is restored to two way traffic later this year.


The sidewalks at the corner of Fourth and Mass are quite narrow. I believe the plans to alter Fourth Street also involve redesigning the traffic island - at which point the sidewalk will become wider.
