I hope the Rickets just buy that neighboring project outright and start over with the design at this point.

I'd agree with that except I find that what the Ricketts have proposed for their own parcels north of the Clark to be even worse schlock design then what is proposed south of Addison. Say whatever you want about it but at least it doesn't have a faux clocktower. 20k feet of LED screens. Nor does it have faux-brick frivolous bridge to nowhere over Clark. All brought to you by the crew that thinks the Toyota Sign, Mac Noodle, and Captain Shack are good design/improvements.
