PS: I am bored with this discussion. If these anti-development wingnuts can stop another project in Halifax then I think that there is little hope for Halifax.

Fenwick the comments are from multi persons.
Besides, let the b.s. about the anti development wingnuts stopping another development. It will be the taxpayers that maybe responsible for the halt of this project, not the anti development people.
But for just one minute please think, why is there now close to 20 projects for downtown either approved or pending approval, yet not one besides the rental building (the vic) has started? Its because the market is in negative mode.
If you want to save downtown, which i for one want to, then take all your efforts and go after council. They are the ones who have killed downtown with there continued obstruction, costs (fees), and not paying attention to it (downtown).
People don't want to come downtown because its not close to there homes, and this comes from first hand, first contact knowledge. Public access and parking plain —.
The trade centre will not save downtown. The province would be far better served to decrease business taxes and HST to stimulate the economy. Maybe then some of these private developments would actually get built.
