new dev

Yesterday I decided to walk down to #1 line subway rather than taking
#2 line West, away from my destination, switching at a Super hub and
then down South East to #1 line. Wow. The entire block is coming
down! All the old buildings, 2 stories high ones. Not one, not two
but the entire block!!!! See map. The blue strip is the area. What
the h...? What development will be put up there? I have not notice
any info from the online newspaper. That was quick. On the top right
corner of the picture where the Yellow "3" is located, that whole
piece of land will be redeveloped with 3 commercial buildings and 2 5-
stars hotels. Right. I wonder what the air quality will be. Scary!
We still have lots of empty 15-20 stories high commercial buildings
sitting empty within 100 meters of our apartments. What are all these
developers thinking?
