The HNR Building will be restored while a new 39-story mixed-use tower is developed behind it. At one time, the fire escape ended on the roof of a now demolished building whose imprint remains. The lower half of the fire escape was recently added on the building’s east face. Sadly, the demolished building was heritage-designated.
