So 10 more years it will be 100% empty 10 years after that they will debate doing something with it 20 years after that they will take it down 
They wonāt take it down. There is too much history there.
Run mass transit out to the suburbs save people the hassle of traffic/winter driving and revive the city 
Slow down there Byron. We need a Bass Pro first.
I heard Bass Pro HQ was going to move there.
Lets fill it with grain.
turn it into a parking ramp
Give me the top floor and Iāll fill it & live there :tup:
Should be interesting to see what happens
Paying for parking sucks
There are a number of decent places for lunch however once it gets cold it sucks to walk around down there with 100mph winds.
Anyone know how many floors HSBC actually uses?
$250,000 per floor should sell out pretty quick. Maybe $500,000 for the penthouse. 
Most of you are too young to remember but they used to have the 38th Floor Restaurant up there.
There are already waterfront condos selling for more than that. $500k for the top floor of that tower would go in a heartbeat.
pipedreams: iād fucking love ingram to move DT, and this would be a perfect fit from my perspective.
iāve heard through the grapevine that its ānot the proper layout for usā or something dumb like that.
it would solve our desk space issue, thats for sure.
Whatās on the top floor right now? Or the top 5 floors?
I meant āas isā but yeah, it would probably be the best/easiest way to fill that building.
I looked at some office space around there and a 3 office suite furnished in the tower was about $1,000 a month. Totally not bad and they really want to fill it.
I think parking is the main reason against it.
You try finding parking for ~1450 people downtown. Itād be a friggin nightmare.
They had 5k people there, right?
Get one of the vendors to fund metro cards for a group / team/ anyone who volunteers to use the subway. they can market it as ābeing greenā or spin some other bs marketing term around it
anyone else, pay for their own parking. My mom pays for her own parking, she works at some law firm downtown. Its not the end of the world.
Metro cards to where? lol
UB south? Perhaps im using the wrong term, subway car.
edit: i guess i dont see parking as a dealbreaker. Iām sure they can buy/lease/negotiate some parking spots in with the lease of the building for execs / visitors / handicapped, hell they can run sales contests for monthly parking passes.
