Would be a great place for students to live – not expensive as downtown, but central and easily accessible to both unis.
It was dropped after the first proposal and for some reason the city has allowed it to go forward without the townhouses. Inexcusable.

The city told them they needed more parking and instead of adding another level of parking they took out the town houses. it's too bad, I liked the townhouses.
