Yeah no, that's not what I was talking about I will 100% pass on that anyways. Caliche makes digging too expensive and pretty much everything that's attempted to keep pedestrians off the sidewalk has failed miserably in Phoenix.

US downtowns with skyways or tunnel systems are getting absolutely creamed in the post-covid department anyways. Nobody wants to run an already tenuous deli or newsstand that's open 7 - 3 when you have half the customers you did four years ago at best.

What I was talking about is whether the large scale retail in these new tower complexes will suceed at knitting together some of the smaller projects and help the overall disjointedness of downtown.
