I haven't seen the detailed historic analysis of the Hudson Bay building. I suspect the core part of it is preserving only the facade. If that is the case it really opens up the site to something like the RRC Exchange campus where the existing facade is basically bolted onto an otherwise brand new building.

That makes me wonder what the cost of facade transplant + full demo of existing building + construction of new building would be v the "donut proposal".
