While the Denver CCH is somewhat of a big wall, for some reason it doesn't have the same massive nasty wall look as San Antonio's or PHX, it could simply be the glass. I wouldn't mind something along the lines of Denver's.
From Makid's comments it's sounding like the sit they are focusing on isn't going to be RWP, but something that may already be cleared or mostly cleared, with the smaller footprint that he mentioned.

That makes it sound like a couple of potential places:
- S. Temple (still hard for me to fathom a direct connection across S. Temple).
- The parking lot SE of ESA.
- Dead Goat (another direct connection that seems extremely vast)
I do have a question for you Makid. Do you know what type of convention space they are going to be including in the CCH, is it going to be only meeting rooms and small dividable space, large Expo hall space, or a combination of the two?
You also said the City and County have the votes. Does that take into account the three new City Council member that just took office?
