Transit center itself and we are very, very careful about the interaction of the two buildings structurally, one with the other. The elevator core is also part of the structural system. It is four feet thick, at the lowest level and tapered in size of the tower and goes up and so it allows an enormous amount of stability to the towers structure. And in a building this tall, it is very interesting, obviously seismic design is critical but at this height of 1070, it is really wind that one has to design for primarily over seismic, if you design for wind, appropriately you have designed to seismic.

We then entered negotiations on the contract, which was completed
All of the three proposals were inside of the original estimate. So the staff is really quite comfortable to recommend that the board authorizes the contract for 9. 2 million to anvil builders.

Did we get an understanding as to why that happened during the process . It would appear that that would, pure laziness, frankly and it was obvious in the documents and they signed off the check as to say that they had done all of this and provided it and yet it is like fly america, all of these documents which were required, were just not signed and submitted. A successful one has every single piece and i considered the longer one than any of the others. Thank you. Any other questions . Okay. Move approval. Yes. The first and second and members of the public, wishing to address you under this item . Director
