too bad mill river park insists on keeping the bridge next to it a pedestrian only road. the business they and others would get would boom if cars could pass through

Let it be known your viewpoint is completely disconnected from reality.
For starters, that bridge is irrelevant to Soul Tasty's access to customers. They're literally off of two major roads — Tresser and Washington. The only people that bridge would convenience are people who live on Stillwater Avenue. Anyone further than that can simply drive to Tresser. It's worth noting everyone on Stillwater... is walking distance from the bridge. That bridge has nothing to do with Soul Tasty's ability to get business.
Second you're actively disseminating misinformation about a project that can't make any progress because of the exact misinformation you're putting out there. There are two cohorts who prevent anything from happening to that bridge. 1) People who want it restored because it has historic value and 2) people who want to drive on it. Restoring the bridge is possible but it is financially irresponsible to repair it to a point of allowing cars. The cost is way too high for a bridge no one would even use. There are traffic studies that prove this. Any traffic going over that bridge can just as easily use Tresser.
So you can make it a historic bridge you can walk on, or you can knock it down and let people drive on it. Those are your options. No one likes those options, which is why the city has taken so long to do anything we lost almost a million dollars from a grant expiring. I've never even heard of that happening. We got a grant a decade ago and didn't do anything with it. Enough.

Yeah. So let it be pedestrian only and stop moaning about it.
