Upscale Town’s Streets Are Heading South

I read without sympathy “Upscale Town Confronts Cracking Streets” (March 16), about South Pasadena’s financial woes, especially the condition of its streets. If the residents and officials hadn’t spent so much time and money in attempting to defeat the extension of the 710 Freeway, they might not have such terrible streets, traffic congestion, etc. There is no way to get anywhere south of their city without driving through town.
