That is almost a lost opportunity for the Skywalk. As much as I like the glassed in arc (and tourists seem to love it too by the # of pictures I see people take of it), I think it would have been better to encompass that entire stretch into the new building. Keep it public domain, but make it a public access hallway with super high ceilings through the new tower. This could easily be made into the "food court" of the new tower with full access to both the offices (through secured entranceways), Union Station and the SkyDome/CN Tower.
I would even prefer to see the western stretch of the skywalk that cuts south of the rail tracks replaced with a new route that decks over the tracks, meeting up wit the John Street Bridge. That would still provide access to the CN Tower, Skydome and CityPlace plaza.
