Eh, not a huge loss, two of them are nice, one is already fucked up. I normally hate losing these types of buildings around here, but I'll trade two for the evisceration of the largest surface lot in the city.

To address concerns about traffic, JDL's architects have designed the project to allow for loading and loading of cars and trucks within it, not along the street. Parking will be underground and in the center of the podium and not visible from the exterior, he said.
