What to do with the Myer Centre!?

By designing a multi-use facility for the myer centre location, before I decide how/what I will do with the existing MYER centre,  I think it is more beneficial for me to actually work out what kinds of things I want to address with this space. If we are going to bring more people into the CBD to live then they require all of their usual facilities. Food, transport, work etc... 

*Residential Apartments
*Commercial Office Space
*City Link Transport System
*Retail
*Restaurants & Cafes

These are the main areas which I think need addressing if the MYER centre is going to be the main target. 

From the book "Everyone Eats - Understanding Food & Culture" by E. N. Anderson it talks about food being apart of culture. Obviously we already know this but digging deeper into this food also evolves around peoples daily lives. As people become busier and busier, preparing food is becoming a much more time consuming daily chore for most people. New York City is such a dense mode of living and most people live extremely busy lives. In conjunction with that, the general culture is to eat out at small eateries on more than regular occasions.

With the Brisbane culture progressively becoming busier and busier, this concept of people eating out regularly needs to be considered in this design.
