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....
