Out of curiosity, why is this not a good precedent? Were the results bad, or because it's Portland?

This freeway removal project was generally considered a success, I know I rather enjoyed the benefits of the new waterfront park in Portland when I was younger. Lots of good memories!

Not a good precedent as far as "We can't remove this road entirely". Road entirely removed, everyone was happy.
