The original proposal is long dead (like 2008 dead). I actually believe the developer proposed the bigger (scarier) development as a ploy to force the University City Planning Group to settle for a "smaller" project that had been the developers original goal.

I say 40 stories, you say 20 stories, I "concede" and we agree for 25 instead. Oh well! Looks like you all got me... (*runs to the bank*)

Not to say I don't like it when developers have to pull this tactic, but it sucks they have to maneuver in these ways to get things done.
