My experience at what I like to call the ‘longest light in Columbus’ is usually turning right (North) off E North Broadway on my way to show homes in Clintonville or take the kids to Whetstone Park for soccer practice or gymnastics or whatever the kid-thing-du-jour is.  While it takes a while to get through the light, especially at rush hour, it is just as quick as taking a residential street off Indianola.

Coming South from Clintonville on my way home, I can turn left from High or simply wait out the light–no problems. I love the housing stock on E North Broadway. Even my 11-year-old likes it, adding the street to her list of ’streets I’d like to live on’ that she keeps in the car just a few days ago.  While I would have hated to see those big old trees torn down and would have felt bad for the homeowners and their adjusted home values had the street been widened due to a turn lane or traffic circle, I didn’t think it’d ever happen and I’m glad to see that the Mayor let a neighborhood commission make that kind of decision.
