Broadway trailhead?

I had planned on hiking Jacob's Crosscut from the Broadway trailhead yesterday, maybe check out Monument Canyon, etc. I couldn't find it. It's gone.
I was driving east on Broadway, and suddenly I'm in yuppie subdevelopment hell.
Where's the trailhead?

Fair enough, I just felt the need to elaborate on some of the above points. C'mon Joe, you ought to know by now I can't keep my mouth shut about anything.

I noticed this when I moved here that they are allowing building right by the tailheads and trails. In Indiana, the Federal gov't and state of Indiana are buying up more land to avoid this. I lived by the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore.
Arizona is actually doing just the opposite. The state is mandated to sell or trade state trust lands for the "highest possible return" in order to raise money for state operations such as schools, social services etc. Keep that in mind next time you hear some grouch grumbling about taxes or a politician promising to lower them still further.

In response to Nighthiker's reply:
That is the unit crest of the 327th Infantry Regiment
Which is part of the 101st Airborne Division.
