Wooten Park Streetscape

Wooten Park is a rather seedy district in the Wooten neighborhood off Anderson Ln, with aging apartments and town houses. The street arrangement is appalling.  As shown on the right side of the image below, there is no sidewalk shade, and cars may cross at almost any point on the sidewalk to reach a parking space. 
 
Wooten Park has one potential asset - the street is four lanes.  The next time that the City of Austin performs work on this street, it may be possible to rededicate the outer two lanes of the street to parking, and use the freed up space closer to the buildings for a safe, tree-lined pedestrian zone.
