I have found myself randomly getting in the car to drive up to downtown just to walk through the park/downtown. I'm not a good example because I am hyper aware and eager of our progress and changing city and would be more likely to come anyway just to see the progress as much as to enjoy the environment. So glad to see downtown alive again.
I agree. I was downtown this weekend and with the arts festival and everything else that was going on I really enjoyed the sense of vibrancy. The atmosphere at Myriad Gardens will only get better when you have the convention center on the south end of it with a possible hotel tower and then the Stage Center tower to the west.
