10. Tivoli theatre gets the proper funding to go ahead with redevelopment of the theatre. X
11. That damn halfway house closes down or gets relocated, jeez only been wishing for this for 4 years now. X
12. The old federal building finally starts the redevelopment along with the construction of the new Hilton Hotel. X

4 1/2 out of 13 haha. 2008 wasn't really a great year for Hamilton in my opinion, too many disappointments. The only real bright spot was Metrolinx and LRT.
