If they had not done that, 3rd Av. traffic could enter and exit via Clay and 5th, which would probably cut down on the congestion at Dominican.S-townMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948307051485318061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10635442.post-1164984751163705522006-12-01T08:52:00.000-06:002006-12-01T08:52:00.000-06:00I went to the new S'bucks this morning about 7:40,...I went to the new S'bucks this morning about 7:40, using the '3rd Avenue backdoor approach' and ran into a nearly impossible chain of traffic turning right into Dominican from 8th and making a quick left on Vantage (first road to the left behind the 'On the Run').<BR/><BR/>I had to be fairly aggressive and somewhat obnoxious in order to cut thru the traffic. On the other hand..sure is nice to have the coffee option so close by.
