New thread for the ongoing renovation of Lawrence Square, which has officially rebranded as the Lawrence Allen Centre. More details to follow.
There is so much surface parking literally 100 metres from a subway station, why not develop some of it with housing?
It definitely used to be dumpy before the renovations. The skylights were there but the finishes were all so dark that a good amount of the light was being absorbed.I'm amazed at the inside! I had no idea. Never been inside. Figured it was as dumpy as the outside. And I certainly never realized how big it is.
They've gotta get a different assortment of stores from Yorkdale if they want to survive, and, um, a little more downmarket is where they need to take this… so I'm surprised this looks so much better than I had expect inside. I was definitely expecting less.Better yet - why not redevelop all of it? A mall here so close to Yorkdale's rain shadow is bound to be unconvincing.
