Honestly, I don't see how this would affect more than a few houses in the area. Why not add a new exit coming off of the ramp to take 110 North? It could wrap around and meet up with Thomas Delpit/East Blvd.
Just looking at the map, there is plenty of room to expand 10 with at least 1-2 lanes without encroaching on the neighboring houses (with the Washington exit ramps removed). They already have the interstate in their front yards, what would another lane matter to them. The real problem lies where you get closer to the lakes and the houses off of E Lakeshore. Those are much closer to the interstate and would be cause a huge issue with expansion.

What is interesting is watching a vehicle coming South on I-110 and trying to use the Washington St. Exit. They literally try and cut through all that traffic coming East on I-10 to reach that tiny exit ramp. It's chaos right there.
