This reminds me so much of everything that was taken out on Detroit's riverfront to make way for Hart Plaza, the RenCen, and Cobo Hall. It's funny, though, because when they knocked down Detroit historic wharf district, they actually found pieces of the original town under that. lol
BTW, I've always loved the Railway Exchange Building for its sheer dominance of downtown. It's so ridiculously out of scale that it's charming. How many hundreds-of-thousands of square feet is it, and what's it used for, today?
