I would guess yes. There are numerous people walking to and from the parking garage and Hobby during rush hour. I'm not sure where those people park once the garage goes away. Both need to go away IMHO. The street level interaction of those blocks is entirely off putting.

As an aside, more than a year ago, a realtor friend of mine told me that he heard that the garage could be set for redevelopment as early as 2020. I'm not sure of his source. So that's all hearsay of course, but there might be something to it? Hopefully...
