Gondolas right? Hell, maybe we could have one go from the Hill District to the Pennsylvanian as well, giving the East Busway some functionality for people in the Lower Hill.

Yeah, that's why I said fill up. I don't think 1-2 towers right by the future deck park will be that damaging to the existing neighborhood, as it would function more like an extension of downtown than anything. But if it became Amazon-land in toto it would undoubtedly be bad for existing residents.
