^ from what I've been made to believe there is a HUGE demand... and yet a 21 year plan..... it might be something by then that my grand children will consider when it comes to deciding on a city to live and raise a family.
But of course my own children in 10 years will -- at the closest -- be living in Toronto and their children will have to have a reason to move to the Hammer. This might be it.... o boy... 21 years I can't wait to see Hamilton then. So much will have changed. Our downtown will be full of working professionals getting to work via LRT, we'll have one of the lowest office vacancy rates in the country and the demand for head offices will be so great that Hamilton will have 4 or 5 new office towers being built. Our Bayfront will be full of activity 300 days of the year, condos and commercial buildings competing for the best view of the swamp .. I mean Bayfront... Randle Reef will be a container port. Via and Go will be making hourly stops in Hamilton. The Royal Connaught will be hosting national conventions, York Blvd will be converted back to a blvd and condos will line the route to the Royal Botanical Gardens.!!! Because they are so close to the largest botanical gardens in the country!!!!. (forget about that now, that doesn't apply.. o ya right it does.. I can see the cranes now). 35,000 new residents have made downtown Hamilton home because of the jobs, how safe it is, the new schools, the walkable shopping, the convenient LRT, and the amenities. Hamilton is truly a 24-hour city. So come on my grand children, move back to Hamilton... it's the best places to Raise A Family.... A program we started 20 years ago and are so proud that we worked so diligently on it that it paid off.. Hamilton 2030 The Best Place to Raise A Family..
Of course if that doesn't work. Hamilton can try for 2050 The Best Place to Raise A Family.
