I suggest that we build elevated walkways covering every busy street in (lower) Manhattan. You know it's going to happen someday, so why not get it over with. And then we'll be one step closer to Coruscant.
I'm envisioning something like an extrawide catwalk built over some of the busier streets with either ladders or stairs down to the next floor of the city. They'll either attract tourists or they'll become the pedestrian superhighways of the city.

- hasbroslasher 10y agoI have a feeling the stores on 5th Ave would be less optimistic. Like I said - I think this idea is an eventuality in such dense urban centers.
- f_allwein 10y agoSomething similar was done in the Olympic Village in Munich: the ground level is reserved to pedestrians, with cars undergound. http://www.heinlewischerpartner.de/Olympic-Village-Munich.73.1.html http://www.heinlewischerpartner.de/Olympic-Village-Munich.73...
