I agree, new concrete els are a lot more attractive than the old steel ones. The new Market-Frankford line elevated structure in West Philly is going to be a concrete strucutre, and should look pretty nice if it ever gets finished. The els in Atlanta look nice, too.As for NIMBY opposition, I like the trick Chicago used. Instead of running the L lines over streets, they ran them in alleys behind buildings in lots of places. This kept sunlight on the streets. Mark |
