They really need to open the Skywalk for a late night bike race...All the way to the DECC

For all the years the skywalk has been around, it looks pretty good! Thanks for sharing.
Anyone know the birthdate and connections of the original skywalk? I don't, just asking. 
I remember some of the later installments - under the Radisson and library/Superior Street.
As a little kid I wondered why people would watch the Christmas Parade from the skywalk in connections to places like MP&L and Holiday Center.
Now as an adult, I understand...brrr
