for good examples of this in Hamilton look at Locke South, Westdale and James North. All three are in various stages of of their success, but all 3 have the basic things in common that you mention. Congestion in Hamilton doesn't mean New York City style traffic jams. It means a safe flow of traffic such as we see on Locke, King in Westdale and now James North. Is it any wonder these areas have become vibrant, successful neighbourhoods while the one-way freeways in between each district still suffer with little business, no people and loud, noisy cars and trucks dominating the landscape. Ask any resident in any neighbourhood in the city - "would you prefer dinner on a patio in Hess Village or on Upper James?" It's a silly question, yet city hall still seems confused by such a basic concept.
