The hotel would include 12 levels of hotel rooms, eight levels of above-ground parking, and about 10,000 sq. ft. of street and river-level restaurant and retail space.

Why would you say that there is no room for retail at street level? The above quote, by the way, was pulled from you link.
Just because the plan is to gut the Book building that doesn't mean that street retail could/would not be built into the new structure.
10,000 sq ft is a good amount of space... Too big for a single restaurant.
