 Actually, I predict that it will never be built.  The bus station will be
demolished, and the overly ambitious 10-story building and
"reconstruction" will fall victim to the next recession.  I guess that
means we'll end up with an undistinguished low-rise building with maybe a
plaque commemorating the vanished bus station.

This is the part of these deals that I really hate.  There are so many vacant parcels in town that were the result of great promises and grand schemes, some more than 30 years old.  I could give you a great tour of the "empty air of Raleigh" and show you some great things that aren't there....
