The package mentions that negotiations over sites like First Baptist Church have taken 15 years. I'm guessing that the development would be phased, with the fire department & transit center sites occurring first and the Town Hall site a good 10+ years from now. IIRC, the oldest buildings on the campus are from the 1980s, so they'll be 50+ years old by then -- certainly eligible for replacement.
The current zoning height limit in Cary is ~8 stories, but the renderings are showing 12+ story structures. Guess they're assuming they'll do their own PUD.
The renderings appear to show a pedestrian bridge at Walker St (e.g., between Page-Walker and Dom's Bagels) but don't show a RR bridge at Harrison, as has been suggested in the past.

Montgomery County MD found that 77% of additional students lived in existing homes that had been resold, not in new housing. Less than 2% of new students lived in new high-rises.
