Above, we see that substantial completion on the public space/parkette and the stairs down to The Beltline had been achieved.

Almost 10 months later........neither have been opened to the public.

It's amazing that you can walk by one of these stations and then an entire year goes by and there they are, still sitting there!

Amazing/disgusting ... .fine line.

Thing is.....even if one accepted the absurd delays in getting the line open, the @#$# stairs to the Beltline are in no way related.......they're done, they're structurally sound, just open them!

The situation with Mount Dennis GO station seems similar. It's a concrete platform with a shelter structure. Finish it and open it up for service, even if the LRT line isn't ready yet. Give the long-waiting residents and businesses some relief from the construction.

Caledonia GO station should have also been built by now. The fact that they can't even open the GO stations on time, despite their simplicity relative to the LRT line, is like salt in the wounds for locals.
 
Does anyone have a photo of the staircase from the trail? I'm making a video about the Beltline but haven't been on it in over 5 years.
