Coverage from the MBJ with those number$! The Pyramid is paid off 4 times over in the first 15 years and the lease is optional for 55 years. Even if it doesn't quite reach those numbers it will be a complete success for the city.

Thx for positive feedback arkitekte. The city is very excited about this project and it took so long for negotiations to be completed. I almost cannot believe it myself, but Robert Lipscomb has delivered the Great American Pyramid.

Good news to me. I don't know about others, but I'm tired of seeing Walgreens, Rite-Aid & CVS popping up on adjacent corners. Plus, CVS were trying to tear down a historic church for this. I have to agree with Memphis Heritage on this one.
