I live here, and while yeah I would sorta kinda have preferred the sidewalks from the start, I have no interest in ripping up peoples' front yards to retrofit them in. What Seattle is doing now (making a lot of streets limited-access) is way better for pedestrians than a slow, expensive, abortive sidewalk-building-and-street-reconstructing campaign.
