On divider between Elmira St. and ramp from northbound I-35 at Brooklyn Ave.
The ramp meets Elmira St. right at the Brooklyn intersection, so there's
special signal sequencing with separate greens for the ramp and Elmira.

Looking north along Elmira St. just north of Brooklyn Ave.
This is essentially where the double-deck begins.  You can see the lower level descending between the upper level ramps.
