Remember the Embarcadero Fwy? Well, check this out...

This video from this website, Streetfilms | San Francisco: Removal of the Embarcadero Freeway, shows what creative urban planning can do in lieu of hideous freeways. L.A. did the same thing, but with an unused line of railroad tracks that ran from Beverly Hills to Sepulveda Blvd. The result made Santa Monica Boulevard absolutely gorgeous. I wish what's shown in this video could do this with the 405 and 101 Freeway.
