Rainey's on borrowed time as it is, just like the Warehouse District. It's only a matter of how quickly it gets built out.
Not that I'm wishing this on either area, but to me at least, it's clear as a bell -- lots in the CBD (and Rainey) without prior protection (CVC, historic, etc) are destined to be built up. Demand's just too strong.
Regarding this particular tower-to-be . . . I'm really interested to see what their plan for going "above and below the alley" turns out to be. The alley itself is going to become more and more important (and congested) as Rainey and East both get built out. I'd think maintaining throughput would be something the city has a very strong interest in.
