Instead of building three 10 story buildings, make one 30 floors tall... take the Broadway/Stone intersection; two nearly identical buildings where you could've added 5 more floors to the currently FULL One East. Just my two cents
Also, the triangle lot just north of the Ronstadt has work going on. Is this infrastructure for the proposed mixed use "tower" planned?

Thanks Omarainza.
The Ronstadt Project is a disappointment. I wished the Greyhound Terminal should be included in this project as originally planned. It's nice to have a real transportation hub. That building is not attractive.
I wished that Bourne Project, City Park, fails.
City should restart new bids and require a minimum height of 30 floors downtown. These cheap grade ugly 4 floor 'towers' needs to STOP otherwise downtown will end up looking like a typical strip mall and cookie cutter office park.
