There are lots of bars, microbrews, niche shops, and in fill of old homes being restored. It reminds me of Virginia Highlands here in ATL.

Downtown is coming back, maybe not as fast as we'd like. You don't need a bunch of tall shiny skyscrapers to lead that comeback.  I think the hard work - building/renovating homes, more small businesses, is being done right now. The new stadium should be a part of that.

This. I try to educate people from time to time but there is a local perception of downtown as an abandoned, crime-infested hell hole that's hard to shake. There is a foundation there that needs to be built on but it's there. It needs some TLC (and some money of course) to bloom.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
