What's the point of bringing in paid consultants, if they can't even get the bidding process properly done? A variety of food options should have been one of the main requirements, to even make a bid. I, like many people don't like burgers, so I will have to find another place to eat. I'll take Shopsy's across the street but I shouldn't have to leave the square.
So does that mean the upstairs deck will finally get some seating? (umbrellas?)
The whole thing about bringing in expensive, paid consultants for everything (including out of country consultants!) was also angrily debated since this administration mostly tossed out the idea of engaging citizen panels that can brainstorm and actually represent and make recommendations to Council of what Torontonians want.
Without a food court in NPS nothing is likely to please everybody. I like Hero Burger once in a while but I get that others don't. I also love french fries & gravy from that truck out front on Queen St. once or twice a summer, but agree that the whole mess of carts and trucks is an eyesore in front of our most important and treasured civic space.
