Skywalk a controversy in new convention center
What do we think about this, urbanists? Is this really a deal breaker?
“The design should not include ‘skywalk’ connections …, which would limit convention attendee opportunities to interact with and patronize downtown businesses. Skywalks would also undermine the quality of public space in the downtown, in contradiction to city plans and goals.”
@benlk @bloomington_in They’re just completing a study which will probably recommend traffic calming on that road. Whether that will actually happen is another question, but if it did I imagine they would also try to induce some demand for businesses there.
