One cannot argue to growth of Hamilton, particularly in the lower west-end be it residential or commercial. With McMaster University and Hospital being a major employer within Hamilton, I think the increased load along Longwood is a natural evolution.

One can certainly argue that the population of Ward 1 has not been growing over the past 5-10 years. Census data from 2011 bears this out: http://raisethehammer.org/article/1541/

Employment may be growing at McMaster's main campus and at MIP, but that growth is not happening quickly. If anyone has stats on that handy I'd be interested.
