    The site sits on top of a major transportation hub. We are suffering now with low ridership. We need more people to take public transportation. The site is perfect to help attract more ridership and help the economy of Market Street. For the few displaced we definatly should help. But stop development on an major well placed site for using mass transit would be foolish for people who believe in taking CO2 out of the sky and reducing traffic. Also, why has Chinatown in DC worked to keep their basketball and hockey team from leaving DC to go to VA?
