Can't they put it further north or something and detach it from the terminal? Looks like about 1800 spaces there. Would have made too much sense to re-use the old parking garages and run shuttle buses.

At least the landscaping still seems to be pretty intense. Hopefully that doesn't get stripped too, the forested landscaping is another key part of the design.

I wouldn't pay any attention to that Hotel tower to be honest. Its complete conjecture what it will look like because it had no funding or developer yet. They are just showing potential options.
