The effect has become more pronounced in recent years with all the development in the RBCCC and P&M clusters.

Very true. It would be nice to see more residential fill that gap. We have those small conversions on Portage (the Avenue, and the one that's still underway at smith and portage I think it is). We really needed SkyCity haha
