I dont understand how the courtyard will be converted into offices without huge amounts of complaints by users for not getting the skylight, or perhaps for getting a skylight where it is too hot or too cold. Seems to me it would have been much more practical and cost effective to put in a conventional roof, where conversions afterwards would allow a larger number of offices on different floors.

I also find it interesting that Pat Martin, a theoretical expert on construction, claims this is being over too long of a period of time and for too much money. Im curious if he was in charge of the renovations what the timeline/budget savings would be.
