IIRC there had been plans to put in a gas-station super Wawa on the corner with Mural Lofts. Which everybody and their uncle thought was a bad idea, with good reason.

The retail component in the old state office building is supposed to be part of that project's Phase II which apparently the current owners have completely forgotten about.
