On those two blocks we can build a new city hall (10 storeys tall), new libray, convention center and arena.
To be honest, I'd just settle for getting rid of that ugly library and sturdy stone building.

I love that everyone enjoys visualizing their version of city planning like it's simcity (just like I do - knock it all down and do the whole thing the right way...again). But seriously we should not be knocking anything down, not city owned assets and certainly not private property. We have so much space to build in our CBD that from a skyline enthusiast POV we certainly should keep as many multi-story buildings as is feasible. I personally think the Sturdy Stone, as brutalist as it is, is great for the skyline, it's interesting unique and helps define our fingerprint - the only universe is which we should tear it down is one where the Standard Trust Building is able to be restored back in place to it's former glory.
