Well statements like this say a lot. Desperate for anything. Rank would have been better off renovating the herald building. If you see it now, with just the concrete skeleton, you can easily imagine a beautiful renovation of the building - think the Tip Top warehouse conversion in Toronto - but with a better ground level. It is the perfect scale to compliment the other side of Argyle street. Loft apartments above - maybe a 'glass box' addition to give a few more floors, and retail replacing garages on the bottom floor. A missed opportunity.
