Its such a huge right of way and could be a whole different paradigm connecting that denser area to downtown and the LRT.
I know that the region is supposed to be looking at Frederick between Lancaster/Duke starting sometime this year re: a road diet and separated bike lanes. I have my fingers crossed that the rest of Benton/Frederick will follow shortly afterward. There is a huge opportunity for great active transit infrastructure and lots of trees to help with the city's push for a denser tree canopy. It would look and feel absolutely amazing.
