2B or Not 2B

The sidewalk bays of West Norwood (the flats) - no traffic (and 4 days after a storm; no plows either)

MLS area 2B includes and area west of St Mary's Road to the Red River commonly known as The Flats (and the name has nothing to do with an abundance of Brits living there in apartments).
Like River Heights, this area is know for its rows of mature elms and the summer canopy they provide along streets such as Monck, Ferndale, Pinedale, Chandos and Highfield.
And like Wildwood Park across the River and upstream a ways, The Flats have a planned area of bays where the front of the homes face only sidewalks. This was designed after a community in Radford New Jersey in an attempt to separate pedestrians from vehicular traffic.
