Before it fell apart it was huge, I heard very expensive $30 - $50 million and possibly 10 to 20 storeys tall. It was much more that just a parkade.
It will likely now result in just that, a parkade for about 400-500 vehicles.

A 10 to 20 story mixed used development?!?!?!? ARE YOU F#@KING KIDDING ME?!?! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CITY???????? That is EXACTLY the kind of development the Exchange needed to really make this area a neighbourhood and would of added density to the area. I'm so upset ALL parties involved couldn't get their acts together. Sounds like another missed opportunity, just like the misfortune for the huge surface lot on Bannatyne behind Ship St that happened a while back.
