The east side of the Inner Loop has been replaced with Union Street!<\/p>\n<p>For 50 years that visual of the Inner Loop encircling downtown Rochester has been etched into our minds. Now, like someone flipped a switch, the noose has been broken.<\/p>\n<p>Someone asked me last week what we should call it now that it&#8217;s no longer a loop. It&#8217;s sort of become an awkward protrusion of I-490. Like a little lost strand of spaghetti, unsure of what to do with itself. <\/p>\n<p>How about the Inner Horseshoe? I know, it doesn&#8217;t have quite the same RING to it. Heh heh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Mike Governale Google Maps updated their view of Rochester this week.
