Yes they may build this on spec, but no the previous spec building (EAP) was not successful.

This one may begin now but it is a long way away since the parking requirements of it are somewhat astronomical they will be digging for a while.

The higher parking requirement also adds to the cost of the building substantially so they will need a tenant willing to pay somewhat higher rents then expected, which may take a while to find and therefore influence their decision to go on spec or wait for preleasing. I'll try and keep this thread up to date on what I hear.
