I'm totally down with more formal TUP. I certainly don't want to turn it into a cheesy, larger version of San Antonio. But how about some amazing public artwork.. aka Cloudgate (the bean), or the Plesna fountains. How about some more impressive greenspaces that would make me want to picnic down there, or sit for hours reading a book. How about confirming that there would be more food vendors down at the river, which may ease the hostility the city has shown toward food trucks/carts. It's in one of the most conspicuous parts of the city, this has to be done right.
