Google maps indicates that it's a little over a mile from the Hyatt to the Art Museum, but it looks like it crosses a freeway. Is it walkable?

The Freeway goes underground, and you walk through Margaret T Hance Park. The temperature is usually only 80F at 9:30, but will probably be in the 100's by afternoon.
