Descripción
This intersection should be converted to a single crosswalk and have the sidewalk extended in the area between the two current crosswalks where it is missing. The second crosswalk is dangerous. It has cars parking right to the edge so a pedestrian is hidden behind parked cars until they are in the roadway. Cars are not expecting a pedestrian 50 feet back from an intersection so cars turning onto University Place have a hard time seeing pedestrians back from the intersection. This would be much safer and intuitive to convert to a single crosswalk at the intersection and to add a few feet of sidewalk to connect to existing paths.

I agree crosswalks should not be adjacent to parking. Remove the parking or replace with a bike coral or two to daylight it.
Cars should be expecting pedestrians everywhere in the city, especially on a college campus with extensive footpaths. Making pedestrians have to travel further for the convenience of motorists is not the way to a walkable city.
