If the City of Denver wants to make the 16th St. Mall more attractive to people and tourists, then I think they should get rid of the smoking. Just because it doesn't bother some people or they haven't noticed before doesn't mean it's not an issue. As for pot, I get a little annoyed when people smoke it on the streets. I'ts illegal and I don't want to smell it and that doesn't JUST happen on the 16th St. Mall- it happens all over.
