Is the bank still going to be a Wachovia across the street? or a Citibank?
With a decision needed to be made soon upon completion of this project;as Treasurer I would like to propose the East-West tollway to discourage development in the area, ease congestion of traffic, and create a buffer zone to not push the endangered city pigeon into the Zoo and Brackenridge Park.
Just kidding.

first, the bank will be....empty. seriously, my guess is that it will be built out as a wachovia branch. wells fargo and citi will fight over who gets what, but the contract and the plans and all of that are done and signed and i don't know any contractor who would delay work and risk not getting paid.
second, your zoo-tollway idea is brilliant. anything we can do to save the city-pigeon needs to be done. i have started a peition to have their habitat (gutters, monuments, and low-grade roofs) built on some empty land that surrounds Camp Bullis behind the Rim. rather than the pesky trees out there (and their noisy friends the golden-cheeked warbler), we will have pooped-on statues, clogged gutters, and lots of strange diseases. as a bonus, we can use the old "skyride" right of way as the route for the zoo tollway, which will allow people to bypass all of the charm of the city so they can get wherever they are going.
