They currently have the corner cut off (see the first rendering), which takes away potential space where they could have at least one corner retail front if not more. Seems like a cop out.

And by the way, I'm clearly not the only one talking about retail here.
Completely agree. They could have made the garage six floors, then have the ramps on Jack White going up. It doesn't make sense to me and feels like they didn't want to spend the money. A restaurant would have done wonders, like a diner, during lunch from Tower Life, and lunch and dinner from the Granada and the new tower.
