The problem with turning the existing building into a usable space is that it's falling apart. Multiple roof leaks, the basement is flooded, there are broken taps that have been leaking water since it closed, the elevators are pretty sketchy and the inside has been more or less gutted (everything from toilets to seating to lights being removed). Unless someone nice donates a lot of money to fix that up, I can tell you that the Region of Waterloo has no desire to fix anything in the building at this point.
