So this is the site of the former "Monroe Block" of antebellum historic structures that was torn down in the 1990s. This should improve the chances of redevelopment of the block next door that the National Theatre sits on.

This is also the site of that "Frank Gehry" type circular pair of towers that were planned just a few years ago, but never made it past the planning stages. Will be very curious to see the design.

Fronting on Woodward, I hope it looks nicer than the tower built on the Kennedy Square site across Campus Martius.
