A bit off topic but is anyone else disappointed with the new “pocket plaza” where the old right turn lane from 5th to 17th was? It was shown with planters and seating in the early designs for the 17th Avenue overhaul and all we got was a massive concrete pad and a couple sad looking street trees.

I prefer the concrete area that slims the crossing to the pork chop design before, but agree it needs some love.
 
If anyone happens to walk past the site I'd be curious to see who the construction company is. It's usually written on the Orange sign that construction sites have.
