At least they're kind of trying?.... I remember, when I used to study/live in London a few years back that Covent Garden would try to stage some events in the winter that brought at least some crowds. And there can be signs of vitality along Richmond Row at times but that is more-so driven by the student crowd.
But usually the majority of my experiences would mirror what has already been said - there will be few people you will encounter downtown/Dundas bar some homeless people. Whoever is in charge of marketing the Talbot Centre food court needs to do a better job.
And the Popeyes on Dundas is the only place I've seen in my life so far where there is a physical barrier separating you from the cashier.
The biggest positives I can think of (more-so adjacently related to Central London rather than directly) are:

The biggest positives I can think of (more-so adjacently related to Central London rather than directly) are:
- The trail system along the Thames is fantastic for a city of its size (and minimal/no at-grade crossings!)
- Dare I say, there isn't a neighbourhood in Toronto that is as cozy as Wortley Village
- The cruffins from Black Walnut
- And the markets (Covent Garden & The Western Fair) aren't too bad either!
