The Met Branch  Trail is finally approaching it's potential here. The original WABA concept plan showed this section on the cover and envisioned it as a wide park from New York Avenue to Franklin. That didn't happen because DC dragged its feet on land acquisition, but DDOTs Chris Holben made an heroic effort to save the trail by getting an easement for the Z-curve. The trail really did almost die on the vine. At the time he told me the Z-curve could be straightened out later and I thought "fat chance" but it appears I'll be proven wrong and gladly so.

As to R Street, I'm confident that can be sorted out, but sharing space with cars is not the end of the world.
