As mentioned, CF's 170M buyout stems from alternate retail ( and more lucrative ) interest either firmly established or under late stages of negotiation, so the building will stay retail however, the configuration may change significantly, ie: dept. store on upper levels and flagship retail on the first two levels. Our retail scene is short of prime location +5000 sq. foot spaces, this just may satisfy the demand for exciting, large format spaces which Robson and Granville seriously lack.
