Another winner! Monday’s sidewalk photo was correctly identified by readers Bill Robinson and Justin Ton who felt an especially local affinity for the street. The photo was taken on Schiller Avenue looking north at Beargrass Creek. Here’s a new photo. Guesses in the comments.

Thats West Maglonia Ave.
Seventh Street, at Myrtle and Park, where the other 7th Street turns into the 9th Street Parkway.
Actually, it is just around the corner from 7th Street. That is 7th Street where the Yellow Arrow is pointing.
The sidewalk is actually on Myrtle St. About 674 according to Google Streetview
haha yeah everyone else got to it first, where myrtle turns into 7th by the 7th st bypass or whatever the fuck
