- m741 8y agoOut of curiosity, why is this not a good precedent? Were the results bad, or because it's Portland?
- metildaa 8y agoThis freeway removal project was generally considered a success, I know I rather enjoyed the benefits of the new waterfront park in Portland when I was younger. Lots of good memories!
- jaggederest 8y agoNot a good precedent as far as "We can't remove this road entirely". Road entirely removed, everyone was happy.
