One project I would like to see them do is a building on Laurier between Copernicus and King Edward, with the University bookstore at ground level along the sidewalk, along with a new campus bar (bring back the Nox!!!!) and class/residence space above - I'd go about 6-7 storeys.
I thought about that too. McGill Univeristy's bookstore is like that. Some of those houses there are way passed their prime and could use demolition. There is similar architecture on that street to knock a few of those old Victorian houses. But I would like to see student hosing above to give the area a better feel.
