I've heard many rumours over the years that there is a huge tunnel behind the casino that could be redeveloped and used as a connector. I have no idea whether its true or not, and if not I would assume a few pedestrian overpasses would be built, would likely make for some amazing views of the downtown towers as well as the new stadium that is being rumoured for the land.
