FYI - Coverage in today's paper re alternative to uptown pedestrian bridge connector "Called the Seventh Street to 10th Street segment, the project will close a gap in the Little Sugar Creek Greenway, the county’s portion of the city-county partnership, that lies between Seventh Street and Greenway Crescent Lane near 12th Street" Est completion: 2022
