North Blvd has an overpass over the rail road tracks. It is an ideal route to go east into mid city in part because of that. And because no one has figured out that it exists yet, as proven by this thread.


That’s a big plus. A big negative is it ends at Foster.
Government has always been a key artery for commuters coming from Broadmoor, Sherwood, Jefferson, Goodood, Jeff. Terrace, Tara area to Downtown and to LSU. Old Hammond, Jefferson Hwy. all funneled into Government which was a prime artery for 100 years.
Shrinking Government St.the natural artery to Downtown and mid city ftom the SE isn’t as easy as saying take N Blvd. which doesn’t connect easily to the areas I listed.

I think they do something similar to North Blvd if they ever figure out their grand plan of adding street car service. They came pretty close towards the end of Holden's tenure.
