From what I read in an article a while back Rideau is still planning on expanding, but they are waiting for the Congress (Convention) Centre to be completed before they will go ahead with construction. I don't mind waiting a couple of years for this expansion as long as they do a good job integrating it with Rideau and Nicholas streets. Lack of street presence is not an option in this case.
