I’ll give you a hint…..when I bought on spec at Robert Watson Lofts up the street in the very early 2000’s, the developer was touting it as a great neighbourhood amenity to come soon……I waited 3 years on spec to move into Robert Watson. I lived there 5 years before selling. I’ve lived in my new place 12 years this year. I’m afraid we will all look like the pic you posted before it’s ever completed

I'll remain skeptical until I see shovels in the ground but here's what the city's website has for the current project timeline. Not sure when it was last updated:
Wabash Community Recreation Centre
The City is planning a new community recreation centre at the southeast corner of Sorauren Avenue Park, adaptively reusing the existing former Canadian Linseed Oil Mills Ltd. building (1910).
