Downtown documentation.

Last week I posted an video showing the innovative "green phase" pedestrian crossings in the Netherlands.  It's not unheard of in the US either, but I was pleasantly surprised that Reno even has a intersection with this design (Virginia St. and W. 2nd Ave.).  Here's the proof!


Also note, that even in tough times Reno is reinvesting in and revitalizing the pedestrian infrastructure.  The sidewalks on W. 2nd are being upgraded to a nice patterned walkway from the previous narrow bland concrete sidewalk!  Every once in a while I really thing Reno just might be on to something!
