Love the idea of a pedestrian bridge. Maybe with more outdoor activity and things to do downtown, it'll help the downtown area come back to life. Always good to reclycle stuff too!


I'll just offering the editing: "help the downtown area come back to life MORE." I'm sure many of you have lived in Louisville longer than me, but I've been around long enough to remember when nobody went downtown (most of the 1980s). I even remember some cynicism about the Waterfront plans. All I hear now are crickets.

The picture of the Big Four bridge on the IN side doesn't show any access currently. I think the plan Jeffersonville wants to do with the canal is very cool, and would be wonderful when/if it gets done, kind of reminds me of the Broad Ripple area of Indy. But it appears to me that the KY side of that bridge is much closer to being completed than the IN side.

I must be blind. I haven't seen anything on the IN side.

Have you ever been over there?
