Architect is universally liked, but the developer doesn't always get the best out of them...
Whoever it is I hope they do a good job. Unless you've seen the renders Projectie and think it's going to be a sh!+show.

No movement for now I guess.

IMO, the building should be restored to a pre-1983 form in any new development- it might ironically make retaining it easier, since it involves stripping off the ugly upper floors.
 
So… as of City Council on May 5, things changed here:
Was: Diamond Schmitt 197.81m 59s zoning not approved
Is: Hariri Pontarini 209.6m 61s zoning approved

much better than the previous rendition but i don't like how overbearing the addition is on the existing building (namely the 5 storey addition, then the 3 storey addition before the actual tower). Also the tower could really use some colour
