At this point I'm thinking Eau Claire (minus Prince's island park) is just a failed community. Maybe too strong a wording? I don't know, it feels like nothing more than a vertical community with almost no life around it at ground level.
Failure sounds appropriate. It's the lack of vibrant gathering spots for all times of the day and weekends. But there's still a ton of developable land that it can be made into something still. First get rid of Eau Claire Market.
