That's actually the best idea I've heard yet for Halterm - Burnside area makes tons of sense, close to the business parks, rail and several major highways. Too bad we couldn't have proposed that idea last year
That being said, Halterm is picking up a bit again, and aren't there concerns about Post-Panamax ships getting under the bridges?
I agree it would be great to see residential ON the Seawall site, but with the number of parking lots within a two block radius there is certainly potential for significant residential development off of Port Authority land. That being said I'd prefer to see more residential directly in the downtown core first, but wouldn't object to residential further south on that basis.
