My last post on this. Feel free to have the last word.
Otherwise, you'll have to take my word for it. My word coming from the fact that I have friends and acquaintances who are involved in commercial real estate development in downtown and the urban core. I also have a pretty good understanding of the downtown market and have so for the past 8 or so years.
It's not the HDRC. Not even a little bit.
First, you're not the only one who knows people, nor has an interest in the urban core, so you knock that fallacious argument off now.
Second, if you seriously think the added bureaucratic BS added to making things happen downtown that the HDRC creates, along with added costs to construction, (just to get a friendly nod from the HDRC), and the uncertainty this process adds has no bearing on DT development, you are either ignorant or a damned fool.
Go ask the major players in this city why their HQ's are not DT, (read Valero, Tesoro, NuStar...).
