At some point Del Ave/Columbus Blvd will be lined with high rises from here up to SugarHouse Casino.

(a light rail service would also do it! with an express to the stadiums! but that's pie in the sky stuff).

Obviously the funding needs to be there (so a longterm dream or pipe dream), but I'd like to see the Park cap extended over I-95 and Columbus to Dock Street on the one side and Arch on the other. Can be a mixture of additional park and buildings that sit atop. Then North of Arch, Columbus would not be capped, but the 2011 Master Plan would be implemented, which is supposed to look like the picture in this article:
