You got me thinking about the following: If you could imagine an "inner ring road" of surface streets within 128 that defined the outer limits of the city's core urbanity (leaving the inner belt expressway out of this!) where would you place it?

My proposal: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en...4f107c46a7fd52

That is, Rt 60 from Revere through Medford, on to Rt 16 from Mystic Valley Pkwy to Alewife, on to Soldiers Field Road, to Market St which becomes Chestnut Hill Ave, Rt 9 to Jamaicaway, and following Rt 203 from the Arborway to the Neponset River Bridge.

It certainly isn't perfect, but I wanted to use as few streets and as major arteries as possible.

Other suggestions?
