The mall will not be hurt if the viaduct is removed and the tunnel isn't built. It just won't. The viaduct is there now and the mall already has serious issues keeping tenants. The number of visitors the mall gets each year because someone happened to be driving through the city and decided to stop at the mall on a whim because they saw it off the highway has to be minuscule at best. Those who want to go to the mall aren't going to be deterred by having to take an extra 5 minutes to get there.

And the tunnel option would not benefit everyone, especially not the owners of the dozens of buildings that would have to be torn down to make way for it, which would in turn have a negative effect on downtown Syracuse. As with everything, though, I fully expect the tunnel option or rebuild of the viaduct to be the choice, because special interests always take priority over the best interests of the people in this country, and it's been that way for a long time.
