That sounds like a positive development! Even a short section of the seawall can make a big difference in connecting key areas and improving pedestrian accessibility. If they manage to extend it all the way to Bewicke, it would indeed offer a much more pleasant and safer route compared to navigating the narrow sidewalks and utility poles along 3rd Street. Enhancing the TransCanada Trail in this way could also boost local tourism and encourage more people to walk or bike, which is great for the community and the environment. Here's hoping they continue with the project and make the full connection to Cap Mall area a reality!

Currently, the TransCanada Trail follows 3rd street, a truck route that has narrow sidewalks with utility poles, between Waterfront park and Marine drive/Mosquito Park.

I don't know if the Save on (old Dave Buck site) is still being built. I just know it's not a parking lot anymore.
