Two blocks getting uglier

[fuzzygruf]

In addition to not enjoying my work, one bad aspect of going to work each day is the last two blocks of my commute. Main Street from Market to Folsom is dismal. Ugly parking lots for much of it. The Federal Reserve at least had a row of trees on its side of the street for half a block. Those have now all been cut down. The sidewalks are being torn up. I'm guessing more ugly concrete barriers will be installed in the name of Homeland Security. Grrrrr.
