End of Sidewalk on Brady Street

Unfortunately, the sidewalk on the east side of Brady Street stops abruptly halfway down the street at a bridge abutment, forcing pedestrians and cyclists to walk the remaining distance to Second Avenue in high speed traffic. The 1951 plans for the relocation of Brady Street did not clearly indicate the location of the sidewalk, and this issue was never resolved. Apparently, there was insufficient planning to have the sidewalk built in the clear space behind the bridge abutments. Ironically, this redesign will place the sidewalk for Brady Street in the location that it was before Brady Street itself was relocated.
