If SB is going to get the density and program they're looking (seems not to be a major issue from the results) for I'm sure they'll be more amenable to working on the open space and transportation issues in coordination with the city.

SB is almost certainly in a holding pattern right now waiting for Amazon's announcement. If Amazon decides to go elsewhere, then SB will probably be open to creating more open space on site and lean more residential with the development instead of high-rise office. Right now they will not commit to anything that might make Lincoln Yards less well-suited to Amazon's needs.
On the other hand, if Amazon does choose Lincoln Yards, then SB doesn't have to worry about the community's concerns or about Hopkins; Emanuel will just steamroll all of them to make the project happen and reel in that monster fish.
