Related to SS Building issues

I just noticed in the Boston Globe article about the structural issues of the Social Security building this morning that it states that Roche Brothers has pulled out of moving into that space. That's the first I've heard about it falling through, and I'll be disappointed if it's true.

The concrete steps out front took a beating from the snow & salt this winter, but the building itself is fine. About a third of the ground floor was demolished to make room for off-street parking, which I believe would be required by zoning laws for whatever ends up downstairs. I think the rest of the ground floor is mostly gutted, but I've never been down there. The apartments on the 2nd & 3rd floors are old but nice. I've lived here happily for 6 years.
