Anything higher than three floors on that site will pretty much eliminate the view from the campus to the capitol from anywhere down at street level below the UT Tower and along University. By the time a pedestrian hits the street at the edge of the campus, a taller building would cover up the view. I drove over there tonight and checked it out. The only place a view would survive with even a mid rise building would be from the terrace area underneath the UT Tower. Unless the state (or city) insists on having something low rise on that site, the view will be doomed going forward with any other kind of development.
