Would be nice to see a real developer take hold of this site and do something really special or the Gore

I think it would be super cool if they could incorporate it somehow, maybe up and over to that parking lot on the south side. One can dream.

Thanks, Interesting that the City would be on the hook to do that. One would think it would be all on the developer.

Wonder what the plan is for the gravel section?

Correct, just inches away from it, and I assume some level of digging or piling will shake the poor old stable

That's not gonna hide Landmark! Hope they can do this without destroying 33 Bowen

Nice infill, wonder if A-Game can actually build it, or is it a new owner?

Wow that lower side looks like an ode to the next door YMCA extension from the 80"s

Man that is a whole lotta concrete, hope it's getting skinned in something pretty!

Very happy with the near finished exterior product (less the slat railings, just think those are a tad ugly).

Found a most flattering angle to take a picture, ain't she pretty?

The two properties adjacent to each other for the mid block on James S? Between CIBC (king) and the Piggott Sunlife (main) buildings.

Would love to know who owns the old Robinson's and Royal Bank lots. How many decades have those key sites sat either fully unused or as a surface parking lot. If any site could be allowed to exceed the height limit, that would get my vote.

There is a ton of lot/space to work with here and with a healthy dose of density I could easily see them incorporating some portion into the design. We really need the development community to step up and make some quality developments that incorporate what little building history we have...

I would like to think that Buffalo volumes would be a good indicator of potential. That airport still advertises in the YHM market about how convenient they are and they get carriers not available in Canada.

Completely silly IMHO, never got the logic. If I am standing on the edge of the escarpment and looking out, anything with height blocks the view of the harbour or Lake Ontario. If they were worried that a building in the lower city would block the view of the escarpment, think they missed that...

As noted on SSP, YHM needs to court Southwest, Spirit, Jet Blue, and encourage the Canadian government to allow foreign competition on domestic routes (maybe even just to secondary airports). Would love to see Play take on a route map for Canada with YHM as hub.

Unless this site is in a deep pit, the City won't take kindly to breaking the escarpment height!

You can see the cause and effect, sell parking spots at higher price point, don't get uptake, make case to lower parking ratio, produce less spots, save some cash in the build. At least with this method the City gets some visibility on parking spot demand by unit purchasers. Let's see if they...
