Look at how far a pedestrian has to walk, just to cross a 4-lane street, to get to the park. And close to half the walk is uphill, just to elevate over the street.
Every time I see it, it makes me angry. (Partly because this ridiculous imposition of a pedestrian bridge is emblematic of the area's crazy emphasis on cars. When Boston or Cambridge gets a little strip of park green space, they somehow tend to end up with a freeway of angry cars right up alongside it.)
