Regarding the Hine project: Aside from the architectural and design issues, the project has basically lost ALL of the space promised to non-profits provided the original, winning proposal from the developer, Stanton/Eastblanc. The were promising rehearsal space for the Shakespeare Theatre company; gone. They were going to provide room for the Tiger Woods foundation; gone. What is left is a small daycare (15 children), and spend $50 in spiffing up a play area across the street. How could this "table scrap" get more pathetic?

How to profit handsomely in redeveloping city-owned assets: Promise everything in the initial design, but let the community benefits drift away as the project works its way through the approvals, and replace them with tenants that pay market-rate rent.
