    As someone who lives 2 houses away from this intersection on Blossom, and is usually a big proponent of walkability, I do not think that a crosswalk is necessary. There are traffic signals at the intersections a block in either direction. I will however point out that the intersection is very blind when coming south on Blossom and trying to turn onto Grant. I think an easy solution that will solve the issue is simply to remove a parking spot on Grant in either direction. On days when there are no cars due to street sweeping it is simple to make the turn, but on the other days if there is a large SUV or pickup parked in that space it can make it impossible to see oncoming traffic without inching forward onto Grant and potentially blocking the crosswalk and bike lane.
