I'm just happy I can drive through there again. It's such a pain to detour around such a vital intersection

Neon benches are super cheesy and lame.

Crazy, now that I have seen the photo on a larger scale I actually agree that I don't like the variation in color between the road brick and the brick on the corners. I feel they should have all remained the same.

I still think it is a nice improvement, but I can also agree it has minor shortcomings.







Sorry to those that are offended by my altered opinion.

The detour on college is whipping my arse.

I think it's okay. The bricks will darken in color after thousands of cars drive over them.

I do think on first glance it looks more like an intersection you'd see if the southwest (Arizona, New Mexico) with those brown shades of brick...it reminds me of the desert.

Looks great. Can't wait to drive over it when it opens up here in an hour and a half

Drove over it today, looks fine. The new walk way to Samford looked AUsome.

I'm friends with a business owner in the vicinity and he's actually seen little drop-off from previous summers.

Since I grew up in Auburn, and own property there now, I am okay with it. Would have rather had the AU logo, but the tigerpaw painted was a small tradition - so I understand.
Its all good -- WDE -- plan on standing on it many times throwing TP this fall!
