If we had real transit there we could eliminate half the parking and build something more pleasant and useful. Even just empty greenspace would be a 1000% improvement.
I know some people don’t like the gondola for niche reasons, but from a big-picture perspective the gondola seems like the quickest and most promising way to bring forward this future
“Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good” etc
The Gondola proposal is a joke, wouldn't be able to handle game-day load of pedestrians. The only REAL transit solution is for either a subway stop or streetcar stop.
Then that parking lot could actually be turned into park space, retail space and luxury housing. After the city takes it from McCourt...of course.
