The Cincinnati Skywalk was a series of walkways, primarily indoors and elevated, that allowed pedestrians to traverse downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, United States.[1]
Built in segments starting in 1971, the 1.3-mile (2.1 km) skywalk was completed in 1997 at a total cost of more than $16 million.[1] Since then, city leaders began to see the skywalk as a barrier to economic development, as it may decrease street-level and sidewalk pedestrian traffic.[2] The skywalk was dismantled in stages from 2002[3] to 2020.[4]
