The life of Austen

So this was Lucas Carton, a legendary 3 star Michelin restaurant, where Alain Senderens said that he didn't make any money so he's going to convert it into a luxury brasserie. The work has already started, but the main decor will stay, it seems. We shall see in September, when it's due to re-open(maybe October, knowing French punctuality for this sort of thing!). Will he still work there, or do a "Joël Robuchon" where he is there for the opening week or two....
