7th
Avenue looking West:
30m (96') total distance building front to building front
20m (66') right-of-way.
This
view of 7th Avenue looking west shows one of four Traditional
Pattern residential street types. The right-of-way is 20
metre (66') wide. Note the above ground location of joint
utility lines. Parking is allowed on both sides of this
8.2 metre (27') wide street requiring drivers who meet head on
to take turns or "cue" in this "cueing street". Sidewalks
are provided on both sides but attach to the curb. Public
right-of-way space that on other streets is given over to grass
boulevards that separate parking lanes from the sidewalk is here
given over to "front yard" space. Residents are quick to
lay claim to this space, marking their claim with hedges and fences.
