This has to be a move from Brock. She is cutting anything she considers a waste. The problem is the mayor is going to be asking for even more from Metro. In todays city council meeting he mentioned asking the agency to use some of it's funds to build an underpass in the East End. The mayor seems clueless to the fact that an underpass is already part of the University BRT and that the neighborhood has already given their input.
i will be honest, it is looking way better than i had imagined haha...
i know some will still hate it...but i hate that is not the kind of restaurant i usually go to. now had it be tex mex..............

They are not proceeding immediately with the originally-planned structure, because Metro is rethinking the plan (and applying for some additional grants).
The original plan was to provide facilities for
Metro Police Department (which has to relocate; they are in one of the structures up by the Bayou that will be demolished for the North Canal project.
Metrolift
Metro Emergency Operations Center (currently dispersed among several facilities)
Transtar support facilities and
parking.
Now they are considering incorporating additional Downtown Transit Center facilities. They say they need up to 22 bus bays at the DTC and currently have only 7 for buses and 2 for Metrolift.
I think the renderings insinuates that the those parking spaces in your post will be replaced by the patio the others have posted. Small but still better than nothing.
