[Lincolnparkdc] Pylons added to original design Kentucky @ East Capitol

[Jason Maga]

Echoing Peter's comment: I also suggested that something be done at the
intersection of Kentucky and East Capitol.  This idea has come up in a
number of conversations with various neighbors over the years, so I doubt
that Peter and I are the only people who think this is a good idea and we
likely aren't the only people who made this suggestion.  That said, the
solution doesn't have to be pylons.

The proposed new crosswalk is a valuable safety improvement.  It's
challenging to cross the street there with a stroller, a child on a bike,
or even just a slow-walking child.  Requires squeezing between parked cars,
peeking around to watch for traffic, hurrying across, and getting up onto
the opposite curb before traffic reappears.  Whether it goes across 13th
Street or to the Kentucky Ave. island, the crosswalk needs to be kept in
the design.
