Newark has a major issue prioritizing cars in its urban planning. This is especially prevalent with new downtown developments. Crazy to think once upon a time Bloomfield Avenue, among other avenues in this city, had streetcars running down them.

Bare in mind, that outside of the #7 Subway line, those streetcars ran in mixed traffic.

Yes and no. Many of the streetcar lines entered the subway at various points so they missed the downtown traffic.

What's your point, though?
