I don't think so. What he's getting rezoned are properties he has worked out agreements with. Apparently, the two remaining properties on the north side of Barnard didn't bite.

He really doesn't need the land on Barnard, though. It's mostly going to be used as a driveway/outlet so that they can keep curb cuts (and traffic) off the Michigan Avenue frontage and funnel it onto the higher-capacity/speed Larch Street. It's the "back" of the property, likely we're the parking will be located.
