I live a block from there. The controversy already happened last decade and this plan was the compromise approved by the historic preservation people after a neighborhood process. They had a clock in which to go ahead with this plan, which is working on running out. I think the underground parking might actually be a huge improvement for the neighborhood, and the density should fire up our very limited mixed-use/retail/watering hole economy over there. Not really looking forward to the construction mayhem but I'm hopeful it will improve values for everyone nearby. I'm thinking it will happen.
