I agree in principle with the author's contention that this intersection and the surrounding area could be improved for pedestrians. The sidewalks should be separated from the road. The intersection should have better crosswalks with long enough crossing times to allow people in wheelchairs to easily cross the entire street without being stranded in the median. The medians at the intersection need to be large enough to handle more than one person. All that is especially true when there are people transferring between buses. There also needs to be fewer places where cars access crosses sidewalks (the gas station alone has three on Randolph).

I disagree that a mid-block crossing is a solution. Especially where proposed, which is about 200 feet from the intersection. It sounds more like the author has a personal agenda here.
