one tenant will take up most of the power plant the way I read it. The low rise will be trader joes plus other retail and biz... at least they have the anchor tenants to go.

I really hope this project turns out better than I am thinking. A project of this size and complexity...and only valued at approximately "$100MM" scares me a bit. I have a difficult time thinking the project will end up looking anything similar to the renderings SWSG is trying to pawn on the public. I hope I am wrong!

On another note, I am very happy to see the tower's height being increased to 30 stories. Based on the renderings (architectural features in the renderings), I would guess the total height to be in the neighborhood of 350' to 380'. Nice!
