No reason not to do this. Who cares about the cost when we can reap so much from it. If this bridge is truly that important for the nation then why shouldn’t we, who have to deal with it, get what we deserve?
If anything is worth investing in it’s this. How often does a city get a chance to add several acres immediately adjacent to their CBD, and reconnect a huge swath of long neglected land to the rest of the city at the same time? This is a no brainier on the benefits front. The only question I would have is on the technical side, like extreme grades and curves that cause more accidents. But I’m confident those issues can be ironed out.
I think it’s at least worth investigating. The younger crowd wants more dense walkable cities, this is a good opportunity for Cincy to invest in their future citizens
