That's partly my point though, you'd think people and businesses would naturally gravitate to Broadway given that it is an attractive setting. It's a pleasant avenue to stroll down, and the greenery makes it very pretty compared to most downtown streets. A midrise 8-storey condo or 6 storey office building would seem like a no-brainer, but for whatever reason nothing ever gets built. As far as I can recall there has been one new building built on the downtown stretch of Broadway in the last 20 years, just Cambrian Credit Union's office.
