This is one of those angles.

I think it is terribly compromised by the site -- Duke Street is not a friendly hill to build on and there is only so much that you can do. The real opportunities are on the Barrington St side and on Abermarle, both of which could stand some more pedestrian-friendly features. But the owners (Crombie) are known for throwing around nickels like manhole covers, so don't expect much.
