I don't recall seeing a bunch of these bridges in places where "shortcuts" could be seen as immensely valuable like Manhattan. People simply use the crosswalk.
Minneapolis comes to mind. One of the largest skybridge systems in the U.S.

It is interesting that Okc has the skybridges and underground tunnels. At least we should have stuck with one or the other. lol.
