I don't think anyone would suggest that a new downtown-style skywalk network linking all the buildings in the Exchange would be a great idea. But in this case RRC is basically one big complex which will now span a couple of streets... I can definitely appreciate why they would want to have a skywalk link connecting their buildings. Personally, I don't think it's a big deal.

Basically my position as well. The urbanist in me definitely doesn't like the skywalks anywhere, but as a user I guiltily love them. I think having ground-floor uses oriented to the street is a better way to encourage street activity than people walking from one front door to another.
