I added a few photos of the walkway's finished interior to the "under construction" photos posted earlier.

Looks like a walkway.

I thought that this walkway just went in to the front of the Orphium building, but it runs along the side. Where does it go?

It must go into the second floor somewhere. Good question.

Since it goes into the 2nd floor, I wonder if they will have ticketing at that entrance. Otherwise people would just have to go downstairs once they got into the Orpheum I guess.

StreetsOfOmaha is right. It goes into the second floor on the Orpheum side. I've been told there will be a "portable" ticket booth on the garage side of the walkway so only ticketed folks will cross.
