"They are very, very big patios. I'm really getting the feeling like there's a new building," Chernushenko said.

Really? Complaining about patios now? They're not even finished building them yet. For now its kind of an illusion I think with the big construction fences making it feel like they are taking up lots of space. Wait till the patios are open and in full swing to pass judgment. I feel confident the parking issue will be fixed as well in time. But even now, with the small issues, I feel there is ample space for pedestrians at Lansdowne. This is just needless nitpicking!
