Yeah, it would be nice to see the loop finally completed by getting that final gap filled in. Who knows if/when Lakeview will ever develop that site, though... there has been so much built downtown over the past decade but the stars still haven't aligned for Lakeview
I'm a little surprised that the south RBCCC expansion didn't include a skywalk connection to 363 Broadway. Given how bankable a skywalk connection is for commercial buildings, you'd think the landlord there would have wanted one. It would have brought the system right down to Broadway too.
I guess the only significant expansion coming down the pike besides TNS is SkyCity, although it will probably be just a small spur... I doubt there will be any connection to the Radisson to create a new path for through traffic.
I wonder if the new Richardson development near Westbrook will include a skywalk connection?
OK, that's all for my off-topic meanderings on this subject.
