Maybe hopefully fingers crossed..........a redesign?

Also, this statement ticks me off.

that tower grew to 29 stories, causing a stir from critics and even Mayor Jim Kennedy.
Once these buildings are demolished, they're gone. And the difference between 16 floors and 29 floors is visually insignificant (we're not talking about going from 3 floors to 29). Once you get past a certain height (150 feet?), it really doesn't make a visual difference.

For the city, that's an add'l 13 floors of economic activity - construction, transfer taxes, etc. Why is the mayor kvetching about that? Ugh.
