But yea I'm still wondering about the tenant too. I keep thinking law firm but that wouldn't take up the whole building, right? There's gotta be some space left over if it's just one tenant.

Yes, the parking lot directly to the north has always been included, but it's always been included as...parking for the building. So, something
could be built on it, but it doesn't seem likely any time soon.
BTW, the facades on Orleans Landing, IMO, turned out great. And the layout is good as far as auto-oriented design goes (parking in courtyards behind/to the sides of the housing). But the rest of it is vinyl quickly beyond the facades, and no fault of most of the tenants, but this area has been used for years for drag racing and late night crusing and car parades...and the development did not stop them from continuing this behavior along these streets. I think eventually it works itself out. In any case, the new second phase looks very interesting and far more dense.
Really, though, not bad architecture or site plans all things considered. We're not talking little silly Crosswind condos, here. Not bad at all:

Of course stuff closer to the RenCen needs to be denser, and this next phase is.
