Diagonal crosswalks do they still exist?

The University of Illinois campus in Champaign has two, at Green & Wright and Green & Sixth (one block west).

They're less obvious, but if you take a closer look at the sign next to this old geezer, you can see they're telling you that you can cross diagonally.  The 4 signal phases are Green St, then Wright St SB [with left arrow], then Wright St thru traffic, then all walk signals.  I may have crossed at this intersection several hundred times in college 

And I just got back from a trip to Seattle, where I found some diagonal crosswalks near Pike Place Market

In my city, they have a strange setup. All the traffic lights turn red and all the pedestrian lights go to 'walk', but there is no provision for diagonal crossing and the flashing don't walk phase does not provide enough time to make it across diagonally. This doesn't stop people from doing it of course, although it has been confirmed that diagonal crossing is technically illegal. The 'proper' way to cross diagonally is to go across one leg, then wait for the lights to go through another whole cycle before continuing.

Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, which you can see in my awesome view I have while studying here at Ryerson University daily:



Yes, they have a pedestrian scramble which was first introduced in 2008 or 2009, can't remember the exact year.

Nashville TN just "installed" one of these less than 2 weeks ago:  http://wkrn.com/2016/03/07/pedestrian-scramble-crosswalks-come-to-downtown-nashville/
