A redesign is definitely necessary at this point. The plaza is a dead zone when there aren't any events and it could use an update to make it more of a destination for people on non-event days. The Ford Auditorium site needs to be worked into the park as well which can add some much needed green space. The only problem is that the city isn't in a place financially to invest in the park, so if anything is to happen it is going to have to come from the private sector or spearheaded by the Riverfront Conservancy. Sadly I think it is going to be years before we see any movement on it.
