I've seen a few planning documents that said "sandstone" and actually ended up being precast (more commonly you see "stone-like material"). At one point the Marriott hotel on Argyle/Sackville was described as "brick and sandstone".
Probably because of the difficulties in a tight site and well that sandstone requires long term care i suspect it will be precast. In the end i think its more the color that matters, then the material itself as precast can look very much like sandstone.
