Got paint? We can re-spray this ghost crosswalk on Market in a jiffy.

What's that sign?


Looks like there used to be a crosswalk across this uncontrolled stretch of Market Street (1400 block).


There's the other half, just across the street.


Shall we paint a crosswalk? After all, the signs are already there, just as they are at similar crosswalks on State Street and in front of Scribner Middle School.


Or must we wait to award the huge bid and ensure maximum kickback?

Didn't the City say marking a cross-walk would just give pedestrians a false sense of security?

Yes, so said the city engineer. Why then do I continue seeing them in mid-block at other places in the city?
