'I like Hemmerdinger's plan. You can't just leave a hole in the ground. So you finish up the below-ground aspects and you make nice at the surface and then ask the developers to propose, "What's next up?"'Fair enough as a temporary measure, to avoid an eyesore being there for years. But for the longer term, surely a solution that brings in income from the air rights would be the best thing all round - you can still have a lofty, attractively designed main entrance hall for the subway station(s) at ground level, with stores, restaurants, etc., within in. But above, a tall office building. Why not? It's a neighbourhood made up almost entirely of tall office buildings. Seems a no-brainer to me. |
