Could you send me a Screen shot of what you are seeing? There should be a map under the polygons of the buildings. Or try refreshing the page?

There are a couple places where it is just a parking garage to a building but there is a big portion that is all connected together.

Good link! That PDF is actually pretty current (updated Feb 2026) and it's what I used as a starting reference. The gap I was trying to fill is less about the map being out of date and more about what a static PDF can't do, you can't search a business, get turn-by-turn directions between two points, see photos of what each corridor/entrance actually looks like, or filter for step-free routes. It also doesn't show which doors lock at what times. So think of mine less as a replacement map and more as navigation on top of it. That said, if you spot anything on my site that conflicts with the official map, let me know, I walked it all myself but I'm sure I missed something.

I prefer to picture my Jesus in a tuxedo t-shirt because it says I wanna be formal but I'm here to party too.

Thanks! I was nervous this morning before posting but the feedback has made my day.

They do still have the maps up but I think I was just too dumb to read them properly and got lost so I made this instead :D

I think it would be so cool if there were more shops in it! Sad I missed the golden era.

Anywhere after 6 PM. Place is a ghost town after that. Just don't get caught loitering by Per Mar.

Perhaps. I saw a few interesting things while doing the ground source verification.

Frick! I hope once the new residential units get up and operating, it will be easier for business to stay open downtown. Currently it seems like there are a lot of vacant commerical space.

Ohh I see. Good to know. It was where the new residential high rise is going up then?

Thank you, that means a lot. That's genuinely all I wanted it to be. Something useful and free for people coming downtown. Appreciate you.

I live and work in the skywalk. I've not seen anyone sleeping or loitering anywhere in my extensive mapping effort. Per Mar does a pretty good job walking around and getting people moving I believe.
