The one thing that jumps out to me about these plans, is the set-back on Foundry. I'd be absolutely OK with it if it was an attractive court yard style set up. Trees, flower beds, benches etc.. A gathering place where you could even have ground level hospitality type amenities. They have an opportunity to do something really special with that space, in fact I think it would be better than having the building abutting the sidewalk.

But the current plan to have a parking lot there is terrible IMHO. No how much planting you do to try and offset cars/trucks/asphalt.
I moved your comment here. It appears that one of the mods has moved all comments pertaining to the Record Street development here, to this new thread created by BaseballFan.
