Two points that precisely illustrate Edmontons' need to stop projects like these from happening, imo. Yes, they bring buisness and value, but a good portion of the profit is probably absorbed due to city service costs, etc.

I'm no city expert, but there must be another location in the city that is suitable for this, just take "ellerslie" out of the title and rename it.

The Henday is worrying me - I'd really like to see sprawl maintained, and it seems to be allowing just the opposite.
