It would be great if they had both full serve and fast casual options.
I personally would love a food hall, but I doubt that will happen.

Good riddance. Place has been trash for the past 25+ years. At least.
I wish it wasn’t some fucking Wolfgang Puck inevitable cookie cutter shit tho.
Should have opened up proper public bidding.

Honestly it’s better off as a parking lot than an empty restaurant.
