I couldn't finish the article due to the paywall. I recall the DIA having a garage, although there is surface parking on the other side of John R. Is the plan to redevelop that land?

My most recent visit to DIA involved arriving via MoGo bike and departing via the QLine streetcar. Not having to drive made the experience of visting an outstanding museum even better.

@phxrailfood I added a few Toots and images after my initial one that I believe should answer your questions. 😀

But, yes, the surface parking lot you mentioned is proposed to be converted into green space - which is very welcome.

That is great you were able to car-free on your visit!

I would really like to see the People Mover be expanded to north all the way up to New Center and east and west to Corktown and Lafayette Park/East Canfield, respectively.

Then, we would really be in business.

Here is the Phase One plan.

And here is the underground parking deck, as shown on Google Street View: https://goo.gl/maps/9DEcFaTq2XycYMS67

And here is the second part of the Phase One plan - converting a surface parking lot into green space.

I have enclosed the surface lot in question with a red outline.

The same overhead map of the subject area as described in the alt-text of the first Toot image, however, I have now outlined the surface parking lot as also described in the alt-text of the first Toot image.
