Has a tenant replaced McD at this filthy little eyesore? If not, I hope that it gets razed and replaced by something decent. The building that was on this site was gorgeous. > **[Tribeca Citizen | McDonald’s Said to Be Closing](https://tribecacitizen.com/2018/11/19/mcdonalds-said-to-be-closing/comment-page-1/)** > > One hesitates to pray for demolition, but that building is a blight, especially compared to what used to stand there—a twin to the beauty across Thomas. ---

I’d like to see a replica of the old building rebuilt here tbh. Expensive and unlikely, but it is pretty small and there is a twin across the street to study from. ---

I agree, but I’d be happy with even a glass box. ---

Sadly, there’s no chance of it, but Adjmi, at least, will do something great. If and when this excrement is demolished, I’ll pop open some Champagne. They’re among the most intolerable eyesores downtown. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/d/9/d99863afca942e2af31000f4cadef0a7c5f78535.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/6/5/656f8aa70737fe9321e7656cb10e91122126e456.jpeg) ---

I agree that the likelihood of a copy is close to nill but it has happened. Probably not a trendy enough area though. ![2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/7/0/70c4898f73e9ae38347e369c7ef2bc33b8265481.jpeg) ![1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/2/9/29366b3b00514b0848326f2ed19861ede4750a37.jpeg) ---

Personally I think Morris Adjmi can do better on the corner building, also looking forward to the mandatory LPC height chop. The restoration of 315 is fantastic though, WHO PAINTS OVER MARBLE? > **[Renderings Revealed for 20-Story Building and Historic Restoration at 315-317...](https://newyorkyimby.com/2020/09/renderings-revealed-for-20-story-building-and-historic-restoration-at-315-317-broadway-in-tribeca.html)** > > Renderings have been released for the restoration of a landmarked structure and the construction of a new 20-story building at 315-317 Broadway in Tribeca. ---

I love the new building, and I’m pleasantly surprised that the old gem next door will be restored. The Civic District is so beautiful. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/7/e/7e2de89c80cc50ffc28336d1e8b1bfebb3ffbb1a.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/8/c/8cc12b6817bfca0647c7338c797f9b68fbaf3870.jpeg) ---

If only the LPC had jurisdiction over cheap hotel design haha. I like the new version a lot more, the old one looked like a 70s/80s college dorm building. ---
