I like this idea the best. We're in the midst of doing exactly that, which is a big step forward but doesn't entirely solve the problem. This tunnel seems like an awful, and incredibly dangerous idea. Know where I'm never going to drive? That tunnel. I can't believe something like this passed in this decade, when people are finally getting the idea that mega-highways/transit projects suck.Don’t replace it with a highway at all. In its place, create a walkable waterfront with a modest four-lane street. To accommodate traffic overflow, add transit upgrades and street improvements in the surrounding area.
