This is the exact same for single stair as well

Very rare which makes them extra special!

This is a dot project so rolls up to the governor ultimately, your state reps would be a start as well…I agree with you though fighting the DOT against highway projects is tough work here!

FWIW I don’t know what the answer is, single stair is easier but that then gets quickly targeted as being unsafe even though it isn’t. I still use single stair in my conversations

Yeah it doesn’t help it was more just a chance to use this quote but it’s a similar type perspective of how we’ve normalized around the wrong word choice standard (in North America)

This is the old Mitch Hedberg joke about corn on the cob should just be called corn. They should just be called apartment buildings, it’s the double loaded corridor buildings that should be referred to as uniquely different than what is normal

Winterset - an easy drive from Des Moines is home to John Wayne, a historic and vibrant town square, and surrounded by beautiful rolling country side featuring the famous Bridges of Madison County

Fairfield - a place unlike any other in the entire Midwest really, is home to Maharishi University. Where else can you find transcendental meditation followers interspersed with truck driving farmers. It's a bit of a hippie commune gone even weirder.

McGregor, found also in NE Iowa along the Mississippi River, offers beautiful bluffs overlooking the river, lots of historic and vintage shopping, and amazing fall colors.

Decorah is nestled into my favorite part of the state: the limestone bluff speckled driftless area found in far NE Iowa. Home to Luther college it has an arts and dining scene that punches far above it's weight and is home to the Norwegian American Museum.

Clear Lake is situated on one of Iowa's few natural lakes and is a great place for summer recreation on the water. It's home to the Surf Ballroom, which hosted the final concert performed by Buddy Holly before his tragic death, the day the music died.

The building underwent a full gut rehab a couple years ago so I would be doubtful but if I'm around there and get an opportunity to get in I'll see what I can find!

(The point is that we rely too heavily on traffic signals instead of other intersection designs.)
