They need to make sure this happens not just in downtown. There was a unique opportunity to make Millennium Blvd have a nice urban feel, but instead the developer is building giant parking lots between each building.
Even the infinity building has a separation from the edge of the building and the sidewalk which is a disconnect you don’t like to see in urban environments. I understand that it’s on a little bit of raised land, so perhaps at some point the roadway gets raised to meet it.
