- The transit hub/phase 1 is now fully financed by the private sector (both national & international sources)
- The state financing is solely to provide a revenue stream for the state. One Central will begin construction, even without state funds
- The angles of the towers were redesigned to allow nearby residents views to be preserved
- They want to also build housing along South Side transit lines (MED & Green Line specifically)
- They're now starting to eye the US Steel site
