The General Services Administration has found a plan that might just quiet down Republican objectors to Downtown's planned federal courthouse: "swapping the Spring Street site of the existing Depression-era U.S. courthouse with a developer who would, in exchange, construct the new [government] office building at an estimated cost of $50 million to the developer." Both the new courthouse and new office building would rise on the weedy, sometimes floody lot at First and Broadway. [LAT]
