These are just rumors, so take them for what they're worth. I hope they're wrong - this would be an amazing project if it went through.
To be honest with you, why would he build if he can't secure tenants. I've posted on this in the past, but with a large development like this they have to secure tenants in advance of proceeding with construction. It would be bad business practice if they didn't.

I do have a question though, why is the father no longer involved?
