That is what I mean, exactly what does it mean having the school board downtown versus on the mountain? Nothing really. It is not a civic requirement for a school board to operate downtown. TDSB hq is located in North York, over 13 km from their city hall. Has this arrangement hurt Toronto in any way? The redevelopment of Hamilton's core doesn't hinge on another public building in the core, nor does its civic functionality depend on a school board's proximity to the core.
