[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was supposed to connect 495 to Duke Street, through what is now Brenman Park/Cameron Station (this development didn’t exist at the time—it was a closing military base). People who lived in affluent neighborhoods to the north of the connector (Seminary Hill, Rosemont, etc) opposed it because commuters/transit would then use their neighborhood streets to avoid 395/the mixing bowl (for example they could exit at Quaker Lane and wind through the side streets down to the connector), which would lower property values.[/quote] Well that sounds about right - traffic would have to go somewhere from Duke Street. Hardly sounds like giving foregoing Brenman Park and Cameron Station just to get more cut through traffic would have been a net gain for the City. Anyway, its all water under the bridge now. [/quote]
