So... What happens to this now? Federal govt. want to finish this or just let it go unfinished... It's been ages since I've seen anyone there.

My opinion . . . They should have a private firm build it as suggested in the article and lease out. They should relocate all of those facilities to the North or East of Downtown while that land is still relatively cheap. Then once it is all built and everything is relocated and operational, they should doze the old site on Riesner and sell that land. It is far more valuable for residential multi-family or commercial and could help service a portion of the debt on the new facility.

To me this makes the most sense - moving it. I live right down the street to this court house and I cannot stand the traffic and crowd it brings. I hope the new designs are top notch, and I think they can really start the gentrification momentum off the north line or east line. In its current location, a multistory mixed use space would be amazing. I'm thinking / hoping a nice grocery, high rise residential, some small office space, retail - restaurants, combination would be perfect for that spot.

First post btw. I think I have a crush on urbanizer because of his wealth of knowledge. -Kai-
