I agree that most anything is better than what is there. But, I agree also that I don't think anyone wants to go into this without exploring all feasible options. Once something like this is built, it is built.
Another concern that has been mentioned, but not exactly voiced is the fact that due to the erosion, there isn't as much of Arch Street left as originally planned (ie 1976 or so?) in this master plan. This greatly upsets the residents along the river because the city owns x number of feet of property from the bluff's edge...but now (of course) that edge has changed.
Is there a precedent of a riverwalk in a residential neighborhood? I thought the main intent was to drum up commercial business like Dave mentioned. That would seem to be the largest plus to the city.
