I really don't like the investment attraction arguement. I'm sure it's a perk and an attraction, but as a gaurauntee for future investment, I'm not sure. Not because I don't think it would happen, it just strikes me as a gamble. Sure there is more incentive for a developer to build there, but that doesn't mean other factors won't get in the way of development. It's one of those things that, yes it's a reason why but I feel is setting a false expectation that within a few years the corridor is suddenly going to sprout highrise.

I mean, you never know when some group might step in and try to prevent some buildings along the line from being torn down and turned into a Condo development because of historical architecture or because it ruins a quiet neighbourhood. :D

Still waiting for the Randle Reef mess to get cleaned up, but hopefully not much longer!
