I personally don't think a covered walkway is acceptable for a building demolition. What if a chunk of concrete breaks off and crashes through? Better to move people to the other side of the street where it is safe.

This is part of the issue requiring full closure - that it is a demolition. The full closure is (hopefully) temporary. The City is working right now with the contractor on access during the construction.
Also working on short term solutions while the closure is in effect.
