good idea for a thread.
Concession is awesome. It must be one of -- if not the most -- mixed-use neighbourhoods in the city. The housing ranges from $90K cottages to $750,000 tudors, $1 million condos and bach apartment blocks. Great parks from Gage to Sam Lawrence, amazing urban vistas and old-growth Carolinian, huge healthcare sector, restaurants, entertainment, library, white-collar office to dollar-store retail. And like 3 or 4 places to buy groceries. All walkable.
I think it's better then Westdale, perhaps not as pretty but more functionable and affordable to a larger variety. McMaster needs to open up more to Westdale, I don't know how it can. But when I went to school there, I knew people in rez, they lived their for the entire undergrad and never left the campus, if they did the few times it was into Westdale Village and didn't ever go downtown.
I think that may help open up this thread.
