I wouldn't swear to it, but I'd heard that it was going to be a Taco Bell going in there.
As for the development on the old Farnham block site, I have a couple of comments. A full parkade was the preferred option, however the cost of such a small parkade drove the overall development costs too high. As for a lower level such as was in the original Farnham block, beyond the accessibility challenges, there is the fact that neither lower level retail nor upper level retail will earn rental rates on par with main floor retail. Being able to walk right in off the sidewalk makes all the difference.
