Do these roads (90th and Green Bay Ave) still exist?

Are there two parallel south stony island avenues, or is the expressway to the west called something yet.

Moved from OSB ID706784:

The extension of South Lake Shore Drive (and re-routing of US 41) is scheduled for October 27th, according to today's Tribune (http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/ct-met-getting-around-1014-20131014,0,1478530.column)

The existing "construction" ways look mostly okay, but it would be great for someone to take a trip down there after it opens and confirm the details (name [Lake Shore vs. South Shore?], speed limit, bike lanes, etc).

The tennis court lines should not be drawn. They don't meet the definition of "barrier" and the paint is not really a physical object that fits in with the OSM goal to map pieces of the world.

However, I believe individual courts should be outlined because for mapping, wayfinding, and other purposes they're useful. For example, they tell how many tennis courts are at this particular "pitch".

This is a gravel-surface storage area for trailers or cranes or something.

The CTA rails here need to be properly tagged. They should be embankment=yes except where they cross streets at which point they are bridges.
