I have no particular love for the current Drewlo buildings, but it would probably still be a big improvement on this site, which has consisted of fallow parking lots and run-down car dealerships since the mid-1970s. At the minimum it would bring more people to the core, and specifically the southern (or eastern, if you prefer) edge of downtown, which has been lagging in terms of development.
You would have to imagine the city would demand more in terms of design on a prime downtown site.
At the very least a podium/twin tower proposal as Fusion talked of.
Given Drewlo's design past I could see something like this: https://goo.gl/maps/SZXKvR6N9JC2
At least this will likely mean it gets built in the next year or two
