Maybe the VA will not be so onerous. Wait and see the outcome before you pass judgment on it. One thing to realize, once these agreements, use permits, whatever a jurisdiction wants to call it go into affect, it is usually very hard to amend them. It's wise to make sure they study the conditions and get it right the first time.

Now, you claim this site is not in the 16th Street Historic District, but the Examiner article says it's "in an historic district". Which is it, or are they two different districts? If the Examiner is correct and the use is subject to DDOT and Historic Preservation review, have they issued reports? If not, that would be another reason to wait and hash out a VA when you know what all the conditions from the stakeholders are.
