For some reason that image really reminds me of when I was in Hong Kong/KowLoon. They have raised walkways, usually located above the groundlevel pavement so effectively you have double-decker sidewalks. It is an excellent idea I'd like to see in other cities -it doubles the volume of pedestrian traffic and the upper levels are much nicer to walk on in hot weather since the air is a bit cooler and you are above the traffic.
It would be a really interesting feature to incorporate in future city wargame terrain. Stairs to the upper levels or bridges between them would be tactical choke points and troops on the upper levels would enjoy a height advantage but the raised postion might also limit fire.
