I also think the lack of a hotel is a real shame. One of the condo towers should have been a hotel. On the other hand, maybe it creates an opportunity for another developer. Many suspect that the Bank Street LCBO will disappear once Lansdowne is built and Isabella is expanded. That site adjacent to Central Park would make a great location for a boutique hotel.

Where is the office space at Lansdowne?
Agree on the hotel (and your idea for the X-Games, obviously, as big events will be key to the ski hill's viability).

Your idea of a boutique hotel is interesting. Definitely a better use of that lot than overflow parking for La Strada, and something that Ottawa is lacking. I know there are economic factors at play, but I can't understand why there is still so much surface parking on prime Bank St. lots in the Glebe.

The office space at Lansdowne is in a 5-6 storey tower to the right of the Bank St. entrance, with retail at ground level.
