I haven't been able to get a good map uploaded yet, but I'll describe it as best I can and hopefully anyone reading this will be able to make their own sketch with google maps and a bit of creativity...

The BOX:

-North & Chebucto & Oxford (gateway to mid-density West End)

-North & Windsor (fairly dense residential... Gladstone Ridge etc.)

-North & Robie (gateway to the North End, mid density residential/retail, transfer to Robie St. Line)

-North & Barrington (Dockyards, Stad, MacDonald Bridge)

-Barrington & Cornwallis (Dockyards, dense residential)

-Barrington & Cogswell (Casino, Purdy's Wharf, Historic Properties, NSCAD, hotels)

-Barrington & Duke (Metro Centre, North End of "Downtown" - bars, restaurants, CBD)

-Barrington & Spring Garden (Dal-Sexton, SGR and South End of "Downtown")

-Barrington & South (NSCAD, Westin, Cunard Centre, Pier 21, Farmer's Market, dense residential nearby)

-South & South Park (QE2)

-South & Robie (Transfer to Robie St. Line, Dal-Carleton, dense residential)

-South & Lemarchant (Dal-Studley)

-Oxford & Coburg (Dal-Studley, King's College, dense residential/dorms)

-Oxford & Quinpool (Oxford Theatre, mid density residential/retail)


Robie St. Line

-Robie & Leeds (NSIT, mid density residential)

-Robie & Young (Hydrostone Market, Oland Brewery, mid density residential/retail)

-North & Robie transfer station

-Robie & Quinpool (QE2, Commons, Museum of Natural History, Citadel Hill, Holiday Inn, whatever is replacing the old QEHS, dense residential)

-Robie & Coburg & Spring Garden (IWK, Dal-Studley, Dal-Carleton, dense residential/retail

-South & Robie transfer station

-Robie & Inglis (SMU, dense residential)


total stops/stations:
BOX: 14
Robie St. Line: 7 (including the two transfer stations)

Most of the stations could be similar to what is used now for MetroLink, but a few of them could be made a bit more special... Barrington & Spring Garden, Robie & Quinpool, "Hydrostone Station" at Robie & Young, and "Seaport Station" at Barrington & South for example. The Barrington & Duke station would be integrated into the current "terminal" and would end up being right outside International Place
