While I think much of the redevelopment of Columbia Square could be a great addition to the area, I seriously question the concept of a transit-free zone.
I would guess that the current planned construction in the area will add at least 3,500 parking spaces in the immediate area. The planned 45-storey tower at the traffic circle will require some fancy footwork to get your car out of your parking lot. Yes, sadly, if you buy a place in a 45-storey tower, you will get at least one parking stall.
All this potential traffic onto 10th Street will be a disaster. We don't all ride e-bikes. Back to the drawing board.
