If MoD leaves, the site reverts to the City Corporation and also reverts to Common Land.
Not for development purposes.
Many years ago the Corporation actually proposed a museum on the site (including rebuild of the Hangars and it was stopped by the MoD. Possibly this could be resurrected if the site reverted back.
After all, the City Corporation has more money than you can shake a stick at............

You may well be right....but don't ever assume it's cast in stone when money is to be had / a local election needs to won and 'affordable housing' is required!!
