Proposed obviously which is their goal. So i look at the partial and full alternative and i was struck by, you know, here we go or heres a project theyre proposing 2, 13 story towers. You can achieve this full alternative and not have a 5 or 6 story tower by have the partial alternative and get much close to the goals of the project sponsor in terms of numbers and making it feasible to build. I think once youve set a Building Back partial to 20 feet to the tower once you set that back from the street it basically has the same feeling relative to the historic building. It seemed like an artifical way to if its not one of the 3 then, you know, if its endorsed that the eir, you know, needs to theyre going to have to take one of the alternatives. It seemed like theres numerous alternatives that would be done with the partial and full alternative. I did one of my comments was that i think that, you know, weve seen a bunch of facadesism i may be called. Theres 1 on folsom street on door alle
