Hays Street Bridge to Museum Reach River Walk on Ninth St.

My idea to improve this place

Connect Hays Street Bridge to Museum Reach River Walk from Austin St. to Ninth up to river with directional signs, walking/biking designated area on street w/ green spaces/landscaping.

So that people could... 

Enjoy the beautifully restored historic bridge w/ great views of downtown as well as the Alamo Brewery that will be build next to the bridge and then hike/bike to the Museum Reach River Walk access on Ninth St. Connect 2 destination points!

Because I want San Antonio to be...

More hike/bike friendly, connecting destination points that are close enough to walk or bike between.

Since there is no Skate park on the East side, the place right next to the Hays St Bridge underneath I-37 would improve the underused area by encouraging people on the hottest of days to stay active.
