I tend to agree with the comments about height, but re: skyways - they're just kind of weird. They're not public spaces, so they can be exclusionary. And the vibe is just kind of weird. Downtown Atlanta below the skyways is already eerily quiet for a major city, but within them... I don't know, I have a constant feeling that I'm trespassing even though I'm not. Does anyone else get this feeling?

In downtown Minneapolis the feeling I get is, “It’s -20° out there I don’t care if I’m allowed to be up here or not.”

Edit: For anyone who hasn’t spent time in the twin cities, the skyways are public transit.
