I would choose C. Using "it" is ambiguous.

A- Use of it

B- use of it and this is just awkward

C- correct

D- "bring over" changes the meaning

E- use of "it"

D seems to be concise answer

I am thinking we don't need it here A, B,and E and between C and D i just guessed.. but whenever I guess I am always wrong

C. eventually bring about the closing of the Massy Art Complex.

D. eventually bring over the closing of the Massy Art Complex.

E. it will eventually bring about the closing of the Massy Art Complex.

My stake on A

"it" is necessary to denote "complex of 27 buildings"

Rules out C and D
might should be followed by "would' and not "will" when we have past tense in the sentence "there were concerns"

Rules out E

"over about" is wrongly used.
rules out B

left is A which is grammatically correct.
