But many of those are now public trails, so all those 19th Century dreams left a nice legacy.

Yeah, that was a pretty slick move to keep the Rights-of-Way active so that developers can't get them vacated.

Unfortunately the city has a nasty habit of vacating ROW in conjunction with simple SFR building permits. The Non-Motorized Committee has done a good job with the public trails program, but it's a shame the city throws away such a blessing that a lot of other jurisdictions struggle to plan around.
