Seneca One Realty wants to build a new ten story tower next to HSBC Tower. A report in today's Business First shows how it's all part of an effort to keep anchor tenant HSBC Bank USA in the 38-story HSBC Center. The bank is considering real estate options. Its lease expires in three years. The report says the new tower would house a variety of HSBC operations and create a banking campus. The project is conceptual at this point.

Business First says it could cost $12 million and is pending approvals so construction is at least one year away.
