Would be nice to see those railways get covered once the ORCA project starts
Better as Rail Deck Park

Then better your grand kids enjoy itBetter as Rail Deck Park
I mean, we could build it sooner if we actually made an effort to generate some revenue in this city but lol no. Still, nothing wrong with making the place better for future generations.Then better your grand kids enjoy it
Or the city could go in with the developer and see what can be arranged in getting some parkland over the tracks along with some development on the site. The park would be smaller, but come at a much lower cost than what the city has proposed - and has low-balled in terms of cost.I mean, we could build it sooner if we actually made an effort to generate some revenue in this city but lol no.

Yeah rather than wait 20 years, that's a no brainer that any world class city would do at the moment to please the 30.000 people living in the vicinityOr the city could go in with the developer and see what can be arranged in getting some parkland over the tracks along with some development on the site.

I think twenty years may be optimistic. Regardless, the city and the developer are having it out at the LPAT right now. If the city prevails I don't expect to see anything happening any time soon.Yeah rather than wait 20 years, that's a no brainer that any world class city would do at the moment to please the 30.000 people living in the vicinity
Yeah unfortunately this very expensive 3 billion dollar Rail Deck Park boils down to Joe Cressy and John Tory,s legacy in councilI think twenty years may be optimistic.
