In that lot you could literally build three City Halls. Hopefully if they build back there, they can include a nice court yard in the middle between CH and a proposed build out.
Agreed, the lot behind City Hall is a massive amount of wasted space. Ridiculous.

The proposal for behind City Hall is vapourware; don't pin your hopes on it. It should absolutely be developed, but that won't be how it's done, and those won't be the proponents behind it.
The liuna building is still one of the best preserved buildings of its time downtown - from the cornice right down to the stone foundation, and the stone entrance it's in excellent shape
I would love to have known what was originally around it though.
They're really taking their time excavating this one.... but hoping to see a crane in maybe the next few weeks. I believe they've basically bottomed out.

Further back it says for floors of underground parking but the site does look like it's bottomed out.

It's only two floors of below grade parking levels, and three above grade. Somewhere back in this thread someone posted the architectural set from the city.
