Council Member Abreu inquires about the consequences if Amtrak does not approve the cantilever design over the rail right of way. The panel explains the importance of the cantilever to the project.
- Without Amtrak approval, the building would be constructed without the cantilever portion
- This would result in a loss of residential units
- The developers do not intend to attempt building without the cantilever approval
