Repaved on Thursday: Mendenhall and McGee streets
The city has repaved part of the very ragged intersection at West McGee and South Mendenhall streets. The northeast corner, which looked like it had been hit by a very small bomb, was particularly improved (on the left side of the photo). James Keith recently dragged a city engineer over to the intersection while the guy was in the neighborhood on another matter. I don’t think it was even to talk about what awful shape the streets were in right there, but the engineer was struck by it. Whatever the reason was, it’s a big improvement. It may keep fewer cars from bottoming out while heading east on McGee, but you still might want to be a little careful there.
