I was looking into purchasing a loft @ Westside Loft and found a group on Facebook for purchasers. On that group I found out that Will Alsop's Phase III of Westside Lofts (including the bridge from King St. to Queen St.) has been replaced by some generic design. Maybe Alsop's reason to close his office here and take off... first Toronto pisses off Calatrava now Alsop.... anyway, that's another thread...
Part of Phase III's selling point is that Lamport Stadium will be redeveloped into a park:
I'm happy with this since Lamport has been replaced by the better equipped BMO Field @ Exhibition Place and Lamport currently turns its back on King St.
Nonetheless, I'd rather have seen Lamport's land sold off to developers (that stretch of King could use much higher density) and that money used to insure that the city had a bigger stake in a higher quality BMO Field.
