As the street edges get more defined and the city takes shape, whether that is bad or good is a debate for some other time. The process is often painful, and it only gets worse when it takes years.
As the expansion drive truly kicks into gear and is rapidly being replicated at various locations throughout the valley, as an urbanist it is painful to watch a few things. An utter disregard for the comfort of pedestrians, proper road alignments, missing road signage with traffic flow, missing street lights, street lighting in general and most of all, why wasn't the horrible looking cables put under ground at least in the main roads (everything was dug up anyway)...it defies logic.
