Absolutely agreed! I'm really excited to see the proposed renderings. And considering the site sits next to the Basilica, the Church could have just trotted out some conservative plans that maintains the Basilica's prominence. Hopefully, developers get the hint that the Church is looking for bold architecture, not something that will "blend in" or take a back seat to the Basilica (though, no doubt at least one developer will submit propose a traditional style building with similar materials and color scheme as the church).
