Ah, I take it to correspond with this Press Release and an AP story rewritten from it.

With the institutions of the Medical Center able to get just about anything green-lighted, you're right about quality designs being pretty much the only concern. Considering they're building further and further out of the traditional core they certainly have the space to work with. On the opposite side of things, the area is one of the densest in terms of structures in the city, so it could also be a fantastic opportunity to create a signature presence above or within the forest of buildings. Fantastic news all around!
