My 70-100 year hope for this neighbourhood is that backing towers up to the rail corridor on both sides begins the conversation of decking it over and activating it to seamlessly join the two neighbourhoods. Once this neighbourhood is developed it'll be the biggest community divider, similar to Liberty Village/West Queen West.

That’s my think in the last ten years. Why bother demolishing the Gardiner, we’re just walling it in place between huge towers.

All that talk about how it was “cutting the city off from the waterfront” turned out to be BS.

300sq ft investment units in 80 storey towers were going to cut the city off from the waterfront the entire time.
 
It’s funny, BlogTO article hit and there seemed to be a lot of negativity about the project on X. Here, I think folks are just excited to see renderings. I’d say towers were going to ruin the waterfront, but folks stopped caring about that years ago, so let’s just build it already.
 
This area is going to really need an infill transit station either on the Ontario line or GO with all of the density planned.

You would think that, but everyone and their sister has insisted that everything will be solved with East Harbour (whenever that’s built) and the Queens Quay East (if that’s ever built), so no need.
 
And I’m looking forward to a rip off of the Berezens Festival on Lake Ontario! 🤔😱🎶
