It is kind of a shame with the abundance of vacant lots in the immediate vicinity, but at the same time I would much prefer the Calder Tower to that warehouse. However, it sound like we're going down a familiar path:
Demolish nice older building for prospective highrise
Empty dirt lot takes place of older building, zoning variances are granted
Prospective highrise doesn't get built
Owner of property turns it into a land bank and leaves it empty until the end of time hoping to line their greedy pockets with a few more million
