It is just what the Hancock Tower needs, at leasts its not a dingy Circuit City or a cheap Walmart. Best Buy is turning in to a classy, but trendy techno-place. As a resident of the tower I am glad to see this company moving in.linepilot90https://www.blogger.com/profile/12410024024987254950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446280611707537140.post-48919919593706051972009-02-16T18:14:00.000-06:002009-02-16T18:14:00.000-06:00I don't think any ramps or anything will be necess...I don't think any ramps or anything will be necessary since Best Buy will mostly occupy the same space that the previous retail tenant did. <BR/><BR/>I don't think Best Buy is the best use of this space, but these days it beats a big fat vacancy.Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05175439499515200515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4446280611707537140.post-84001875943960287182009-02-02T18:52:00.000-06:002009-02-02T18:52:00.000-06:00Better than nothing however it does dimish the cla...Better than nothing however it does dimish the class factor. My theory is the raised plinth retail is just not condusive to foot traffic nowadays. In the 60s when it was built there was probably an air of importance to steping up into the towers' base.<BR/><BR/>Which makes me think there must be some ramps or new features to be installed?markohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10457612661988773978noreply@blogger.com
