Whether the story of this project expanding is true or not, this mindset is very short-sighted. Company's build to account/allow for future growth, which it seems Meridien is doing in this case. When they leave the few floors they occupy in the other building you mention, the hope is that smaller firms will fill in the gaps. And given the demand for Class A office space downtown these days, I don't think the 1001 and Kennedy Square gaps will be empty for long.
