Since there are a number of industry people here, I was wondering if anyone here attended the virtual meeting on the future of The Bay? The article doesn't give much detail, but the feeling I get is the result wasn't much more than "someone should really do something with The Bay building".
I'm not sure if it was realistic to anticipate much more from this kind of meeting at this point, but I hope there was a real sense of urgency to find developers who have a legitimate interest in doing something positive with the building. I guess it's caught in kind of a "chicken/egg" dilemma; who makes the first move? It would even be nice to know the if the meeting was able to establish what the "first move" should be...find developers, sketch out plans, look for government funding? How does an organization make the first real-world moves on a project like this?
