Suppose a retail/light commercial footprint at the base, I'd like to see the existing businesses/restaurants (And I'm speaking in general with developments) to be incorporated.
Often towers rise, but in doing so, they remove the very sources of street life and what makes a street great in the first place. Deals with the owners, reopening businesses after X development is finished would be nice. What won't be good is a TGI Fridays or some garbage establishment replacing the good old mom n' pop food joints.
Again, just speaking in general here.
