It's pretty obvious... I mean they've held back downtown my whole life.

There have probably been some instances, but for 40 years?  come on man.  It couldn't be that the area is crime ridden after dark, that City Council voted against Lot J, that the Shipyards stagnated for years, that major corporations and small businesses for years didn't want to centralize there, that City Planning/City Council bungled attempt after attempt to revitalize downtown but were derailed either by greed or stupidity, and all due to a single institution?  I guess they were responsible for the demise of the Landing as well.  One institution held back an entire downtown from developing, an institution that is now selling 9 of the 10 buildings they currently own?  How influential could they be?  As I've posted in other threads before, I had a front row seat watching this City Planning debacle for 16 years.  Sounds more like you are setting up a strawman.  Grinding personal axes, perhaps?

I mean when there's stupid laws saying no establishments serving alcohol can be within 500 feet of a property owned by a "C" word and they purposely and strategically bought tiny parcels of land so that no bars or nightclubs could be opened for like 20 years... yea that's pretty darn bad.
