Would the Empty Space at 10th & Phillips make a great public courtyard?

courtyard

Funny, when it is 15 below out, I see things and have great visions in my head. As I was driving by the spot of devastation yesterday, I envisioned a cool courtyard at this space, similar to what Rapid City has. A small spray park fountain, public art, a small performance stage, and plenty of picnic and eating areas.

Of course there will be some legal fights etc. But what if that recourse could be solved by gifting the property as a public park? And naming it after the victim?

Seems like a fantastic spot in the heart of our city for public space.
