It was a big open space already? It's a renovation. The walls will come down.
No rendering is going to show it full of tables, noise and nasty luggage - it's a marketing video. The point is to make it look fresh, open and inviting. They're adding a second level mezzanine and 10,000 SQ. FT more space for seating, shops and restaurants. I'm sure your precious tables will remain.
