Good thing too! I always though the eastern end of downtown could really look great if redeveloped...

This building when complete is certainly going to energize the neighbourhood.

Yeah, things will likely pick up around there. But I've always liked how King E lulls a bit here. It's nice and quiet.
I hate how King dies off here. The quicker development comes the better as far as I'm concerned. Already a better area than it was 10 years ago.

I kind of like it. It's nice and quiet. That will change, though.
I can't wait for the day that Staples and the Porsche dealership are gone.

The Honda dealership is going highrise.
Barely.

Yeah, I'm with KingEast on the quietness down there. But I do agree that it's better than it was 10 years ago, as it was a bit sketchy and desolate then. The condos coming up in the last ten years have helped with that.
As for the Staples and the Porsche dealership, I agree, but what I really want to see is some fantastic development on the s/w corner of King and Parliament, all the way down the the park across from Mill St. That's the real eyesore here, I think.
I seem to recall talk of some action there on here a while back.

As someone who lives in the area, its quietness was one of the things that attracted me to it. That said, I can't wait to see the parking lots and suburb style Staples and car dealerships redeveloped, if it brings more people and noise, so be it!
