The ugly and unnecessary relic of the "two way left turn lane" on the section of Water Street between the ferry
terminal and Polk Street offers a great opportunity for a low cost upgrade. I suggest a boulevard be created, with
left turn pockets at the intersections, and that we erect an arch or some such attractive monument at its south end.
The changes will serve to provide a visual signal informing incoming drivers to slow because they are leaving the
highway and entering a more people -oriented area. A change such as this will also provide an inviting scene for
visitors arriving by ferry.
