I think the design can accommodate multiple small semi-buried additions around the periphery - the Global Cities Institute is supposed to be one of them:There's still quite a bit more to do on the north side, including a small "second phase" semi-buried building IIRC.

Don't quote me on it, but I think the addition will be on the eastern end of the south pavillion.
