I like it so far. Bridges over the street. Although too many garage entrances

[KCPowercat]

The western half garage should go in/out on Independence. More garages entering and exiting on 5th is a horrible idea.

Enough with NSPJ! Those guys' fees must be low!

[TheLastGentleman]

NSPJ is going to have designed half the River Market by the time they're through! The bridge is an interesting idea and very old world. I'm a bit concerned by how low and massive it is, though. I hope they find a way to keep it from feeling gloomy underneath.

[KCPowercat]

I do like the bridge/tunnel

[Riverite]

I’m interested to see the design, this corner will go from having almost absolutely nothing to completely filled soon.

I wish main street had something going on besides car holes. Seems like the alleyways would be a good place to locate those

Nice so far. Retail along 5th (check), garage entrances along Main and off 5th (check), bridge good idea. Renderings? How many parking spaces for public?

Unfortunately not meant fifth got them mixed up

Given that Main ends, it's not too terrible that retail isn't along that stretch. If Main passed through into CBD, would expect retail to create a pedestrian flow, but it's less likely to develop. So better to have the garage entrances there and not along 5th. But yeah, few garage entrances and a couple more retail spaces would be a plus. Are they maybe planning separate public/private garage entrances?

Why not entrance/exits off independence? And why treat Main as a back alley? Why not plan for the day when the north loop is gone and Main can reconnect with Delaware for a new junction?

[earthling]

^Good point.

[KCPowercat]

Main should turn into a ped street and send the cars to independence.
