This is no better than 70s 20-story slabs all over Durand, maybe even worse in some regards. Good luck with the retail. Maybe a Coffee Culture, nope tried that, maybe a CashMoney. nope can't do that. No really fill the podium with a Winners, Dollarama and Metro at ground, large scale retail. Forget dicing it up into twenty-five, 1000 sq ft retail boutiques.
This also what I recommend the podium of Century 21 do. The small family law offices don't work in there. There is a large asian community there that would eat that up. But knowing the City they probably have a parking requirement for that type of retail.
