City of Raleigh should progressively try to extend Fayetteville Street perfectly straight for as far as possible south with key features terminating the vista like the performance art center and fountains and art work.
South Raleigh streetscape is shaped by hostile highways which goal is to completely avoid south Raleigh until it reaches another highway. That is a mistake that needs to be corrected. There’s no reason Wilmington Street south of MLK Blvd should stay a highway when there’s two huge high speed roads next door (I-70/McDowell and Hammond).
