Three comments. First of all, as noted above, Draper Street is scheduled for quite the rebuild and streetscaping soon, although I am not sure, based on what I have heard from residents, that it will start this year but next. Some angst about potential conflict between the streetscaping work and damage from the construction activities associated with the SmartCentres 467 Wellington West proposal. The Draper Street community is extremely tight knit - any attempt to do a large scale buy-out to repurpose the street, or even sections of it would encounter very fierce resistance.

Draper Street Streetscape improvements are the subject of a motion on next week's Council agenda:

To enable a quaint little retail street in those historic homes, kind of like Baldwin Street, or the old Mirvish Village!

That will addressed by the EHON retail zoning reforms, tentatively set to pass Council Q4 '24.
