Thematically, at least they'd go together (do we really think there'll be much for grown-ups at the Lucas?). <br /><br />With one museum at one end of the site and the other at the other, there would be more than enough room in between to create new green space -- a nice park with playgrounds, a skateboarding course, a rest area, maybe a combination ice rink and water feature that kids can wade in, parking for food trucks, gently curving roads and dedicated bike paths, MANY trees and nice landscaping, and plenty of parking (underground). That Reese site is ugly as sin right now and going to waste. Put the Lucas <i>there</i>, provide some amenities for the neighborhood, and stick the kiddie museum in there, too. Works for me!
