We asked you last week what you’d like to see become of the Louisville Gardens at 525 W. Muhammad Ali Blvd. — and y’all are full of great ideas.

Of the 16 responses we received, many of you would like to see it become a concert venue again. We heard the acoustics were great.

Here are a few other bright ideas from our readers on what Louisville Gardens could become next:

💡Reader Denise H. suggested an ice rink — and the revival of the Louisville RiverFrogs — to support the city’s hockey programs.

💡Reader Arvetta G. proposed the venue be turned into an apartment building.

💡Reader Mary Ann P. envisions the space as a downtown market like the North Market in Columbus, OH (Hi, CBUStoday ).

💡 Reader Pat H. wants to see the space converted into a facility for JCPS to use for graduations and events.
