Scorpio Masonry is there doing the brickwork repointing so they're the best (really the only) in the business and I'm assuming ghost signs would be kept or touched-up.

That's good. It would be very nice to see the sign restored. While they are at it, I hope they can also clean up and straighten the angle of the brick above the entrance to match the building lines. It has the look of an uncompleted demolition.

I hope that the opening on the left of the ghost signs will also be retained.

Actually it would create some architectural drama if the opening was enclosed in glass (a mini version of the glass connection between the Boardwalk and the Revillon Building), allowing the development of an interior court and terrarium filled with plants.

I believe the public art (lower right behind the tree) may be moved to accommodate a future restaurant patio.

Pan handlers will drive people away - that flower bed is best left as it.
