KCBS' Matt Bigler Reports:
Jackie Moreno, a nearby resident, said it can be a dangerous intersection for pedestrians and that drunk drivers are coming from concerts and the downtown bars that are close by.
"I don't like it. I'm trying to walk and come home safely. I shouldn't wear all black, but that's a part of my outfit for work. I work in retail," Moreno said.
