An actual and functioning tunnel. It is awe inspiring and mesmerizing. Cooper Union isn't a tunnel that was built from nothing. It is merely an intersection and yet it took almost three years if not more to rebuild it? I don't get it. Yes, while it is improved and more aesthetic, it should have taken a fraction of a three year period. NYC take note: Europeans get shit done.

Intersections all over the city are being made safer for pedestrians with traffic calming structures like islands and bulbs.
