The problem is there might be 60 million of construction costs
already spent sitting there. Why scrap that? If anything, that
could lure a new builder in who doesn't have to re-create what is
there but can build on top.

Dan there is a very fun atmosphere in AP this week in anticipation
of this. It's like everyone is gearing up for a big party.
People are feeling some sort of release in the symbolism, and it
feels great. I know it doesn't really mean anything, but somethimes
