I think the state is on the hook to repay Landmark, not the City of Chicago.
Also it's far from clear what, exactly, would be included. The transit center is a single structure, so that's simple enough. But the L extension would snake out of the site and across the south Loop. Then there's a tram or busway of some kind that goes up to Navy Pier? Is that included in the pricetag? I guess most of it exists already as the McCormick Busway, but how do you get from Aon Center's basement to Navy Pier?
