No and no. No discussion of a riverwalk at this time.
I believe the vehicle ramp from Van Buren down to track level is still needed, either by USPS or Amtrak... so any riverwalk would have to be built out into the river, and under the Congress bridge, at a pretty steep cost.
I'm guessing we'll have to wait until 601W decides what they want to do on the Sugar House parcel (the red brick building east of the OPO).

This would be the first new tunnel under the river that I've heard of in my lifetime.

Probably the horizontal drilling machine, I'm guessing.
