I think Arthur Ross has some opinions on this--I think it's that it's a gray area--question of whether the state has the jurisdiction on that sidewalk or whether city ordinance applies.  In general, riding on the interior sidewalk around the Square would be legal under city ordinance, as there is a terrace between the sidewalk and the street and no building abuts the sidewalk.

a few days ago i was riding on the capitol square,
specificly on the area between the sidewalk and the
street. a cpd officer stopped me and seemed intent of
giving me a ticket for riding on the sidewalk until i
attempted to explain that i was not riding on the
sidewalk but instead riding on the terrace portion of
the captiol square infrastructure. i've always
considered this to be perfectly legaly regardless of
whether or not it is recommended. my explination
seemed as least approching sufficient. i was not given
a ticket, was told that the officer would look into my
claim and that i myself should consider re-examining
it.

thoughts?
