Main and Wentworth is too close to home to allow something like this. As a resident of downtown I find it more disgusting than anything else that suburban values are being imposed on the downtown.

Current market conditions would support a drive through in this location but that is going to change in the next 5 years. Main Street will be either 2-way, LRT, or both. Through vehicle traffic will be reduced. As re-urbanization takes hold the new residents of this neighbourhood will have more urban values and will not appreciate a drive thru.

City planners would be wise to recognize these trends, particularily as they are the targets of their own planning documents.
