REPORTS WHAT’S UP DOWN TOWN

A CHORUS, A SYMPHONY, a winning basketball team (in a new downtown arena, we hope)-when it works, it’s because each member lends his power to the whole. Thus with downtown. People ride light rail and visit public attractions when the streets are secure; retail prospers from downtown dwellers who need dry cleaners and nearby parking, and so on. As these status reports show, it’s all coming together downtown.
