Jumbo -- if the FSG has it on their website -- well I suspect that you can still take-it-to-the-bank if FSG was promoting something which was cancelled or at least if not divorced then separated == lots of lawyers would be very happy

Henry -- just like most things touched by technology -- there are and will be more options and less regimentation I doubt that we will see a return to 9-5, 5 days a week, 50 weeks per year, main office and back office driven commuting patterns there will be some who have to follow that...

RJacobs -- the whole platform area outside of the part being filled will be under the expanded bus station -- all of the overhead stuff is going away with a much higher ceiling The area just outside the headhouse and the expanded milling-around area will be under the tower and the massive arches

Gameguy -- I think that you will find the answer -- the location's uses are inherently tied to industrial or marine apps -- its even a bit of stretch to go R&D / office unless those office type functions are explicitly tied to the marine / industrial primary Hence, you can easily justify...

DBM -- If you are a developer -- you don't "just switch" the basis of your building project without some more significant reason than: in the eyes of community stakeholders -- who gives a proverbial and more importantly the BPDA [the prior residential design exceptionally sucked] -- not unless...
