Skywalk Extension

There's an interesting debate to be had regarding the extending the skywalk,. I'm particularly interested in the Lake Ave extension because I work in the Technology Village and see the benefits of being able to walk indoors, however my place of work will not directly benefit from increased foot traffic to our office. It will be nice for visitors to be able to park in our ramp and the only time they would "have to spend outdoors" will be from their car, to the elevator.

I haven't found any great maps showing the exact plans but will be interested to see how this progresses and the effects in our building. I know there are people on both sides of the fence but could see businesses in the Tech Village asking for security to be increased. They are already on high alert with the warnings of robberies in Kenwood, stabbings in Hermantown.

I meant to contradict myself, while it may be nice for visitors to be able to stay indoors only, I also would hope that this wouldn't discourage them from taking to the lakewalk...

Hey, post a graphic or a link if you can find one. I'm not visualizing where this is going to go.
