This may be the sort of thing you'd expect surrounding an airport, but that much space in only 20-25 years?

I mean, ok: let's say for the sake of argument that Halifax was going to jump to 1 million people within that timeframe. Well, you know, it might not be such a bad idea then. And I'm certainly in favor of Aerotech-centered industries having room to move in around the airport.

But in 20-25 years, how big will Halifax's population get? And how much of this retail, etc. space is necessary to be had out at the airport, given Halifax's population base?

Ultimately in the long term, this is probably the way the land around the airport should go. But I'd think the timeframe would be considerably longer than 20-25 years. Maybe that's just me.
