Will we also be moving the Tower of the America's and the HemisFair '68 Mosaic Mural on the facade of the facility that Marmon Mok is in the process of renovating?

The John Woods Courthouse was outgrown many years ago. I think the plan is to build a new Federal Courthouse where the Police HQ's is at. I think it is in next years budget with the GSA for the courthouse to get designed with construction to start in fiscal year 2011.

Oh, and I don't think the Tower is going to be moved.

Also, I think this planning is due to the fact that the Federal Courthouse is set to move, not the other way around.
Nothing wrong with making some plans a couple of years early instead of letting the land sit unused.



Anybody else see the work done on the Hayes St. Bridge?
