any successful venture on the site would almost certainly be
predicated on the construction of a tube line, which would cost
hundreds of millions of pounds."

Maybe it turned out that too much of that cost would be laid on the
developer?

I thought the tube line was to be financed by other Nine Elms area
developments?

I don't think there's much chance of a contribution from the new US
Embassy :-(

Have you been along Nine Elms Lane recently? It's a true "empire on which
the concrete never sets", as my father used to dub the South Bank.
