It really isn't that far. I walk from 30th to 23rd St a few times a week and it takes about 4 minutes. Google maps says the distance from 30th to this site is about 1,200 feet. In any case I'm glad to see some office development in this area. This proposal and the speculated Chubb building, and Riverwalk once it's complete will really add some life over here.

I think they're mentioning it simply as a known office proposal, rather than suggesting there is behind the scenes movement on it.
