The stretch of Queen between Aberdeen and Glenfern is about twice the length of the McQuesten HLB span. A banquet on the bridge is bound to be a hot draw, and shoehorning people in won’t make it more enjoyable. Maybe using the event as an exclusive fundraiser -- to benefit the Dundas EcoPark, perhaps?
And yes, since they’ll need to close highway ramps (shame this wasn’t floated last year, when the westbound ramp was KO'd for six months) they may as well lock down everything above Dundurn and do something ambitious that draws in the whole city. Do we still do ambitious?
