Development of North Downtown

After reading Shatel's article about the development of the Qwest Center and the lots around it I tried to go back and piece together some maps and plans of this process, starting with the decisions to get rid of the Asarco plant to the new plans for Lot B and L&C Landing. But the only thing I have to post after an hour of looking was this map:

That's from the downtown master plan correct? There wasn't any more information in the master plan? Or the Master Plan thread we have here?

I'm looking more at the history, like maps of master plans from 1975, from 2002... From Asarco's demolition till Qwest's development...

The North Downtown study had some maps of proposed land use. I am not sure if it can be found online or not. The city paid for an "official" study of the potential use for North Downtown, so I would think a copy of it is somewhere.
