I tend to go to Chinatown on Saturday or Sunday and those lots are always super empty. That whole neighbourhood would be awesome if filled with dense mixed-use developments. More people living there and great streetscapes with small storefronts to allow for great variety of shops.

This is what was fought against on 3rd Ave and 1st Street to keep a parking lot.

I go to Chinatown at least once a week, it's drowning in surface parking lots on its west end. We need mixed-use redevelopment, one of which was fought by the community and maybe even the BIA if I recall correctly...

Yes, Alberta too! I remember the orange pitcher and bags, and making the little cut in the top corner. This was from at least 1987 to the mid 90’s.
We clearly lost our way once the departed our borders.

When drivers can't even have empathy/safety for the kids going to the same school as their own we have completely lost the plot.

I never even considered it as a bypass for the Bow north MUP, it will definitely be a great choice in the busy season to do that. More folks rolling these lanes in our neighbourhood will be great, make sure to wave to a few "grumpy old men" as you do it. 😉 #yycbike

You can peek out a bit, but I'm giving the red light a good 2-3 seconds before proceeding now.

Yup, buh-bye to that nice hardpack on certain streets. The snirt shall be born again.
All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again.
