You're confusing two different things I think. The building being torn down is a different lot - though right down the block on Broad Street - than the lot where the one-story building with a CVS will be built. Right now there isn't anything where the CVS will be built except an absolute failure of a plaza below the Tower apartments. I agree though that I wish that nice white building was being saved.
