From today's OpinionJournal:

Converting Gay

Image


Monday's Columbus Dispatch previewed a change that was scheduled to come today (photo by reader Hugh Greentree):

There will be a grand "reopening" of Gay Street on Wednesday. No fanfare is planned, and the street never was officially closed, but tell that to merchants who have struggled to attract customers during the six months it's taken to convert Gay from a one-way street.

The half-mile stretch from Cleveland Avenue to Front Street will open to two-way traffic sometime after the morning rush hour, weather permitting.

It's a big change on Downtown's arterial landscape. Ask how long Gay has been one-way and the official city response is "a long time."

Not that there's anything wrong with that! But take a look at the results:

(I can't show the link, but it shows that Gay street is a straight line)

It's only been a few hours, and as you can see, Gay is already straight.
