    Wow, this would be so amazing if it finally happened. Combined with the Book Tower & light rail this could have a lot of impact on downtown. Looking forward to it and keeping my finger's crossed.

    Well that WOULD be fantastic... BUT as for the Book Tower, the prospects of that happening are becoming more scarce each day... Key Investment Group, the company who announced the Book Tower Project, was to close on the building in November and announce a number of other projects in December, and to this point neither have happened... It seemed awfully fishy for a private investment group to announce a project like that with no public funds, so don't be surprised if it never happens... good news here is that John Ferchill is likely still interested in the Book.

    As for M-1 Rail, the prospects are much better than the Book Tower at this point, but it is still a long road to fruition, but all we can do is hope, and with the major backers this time around, things are looking up.
