1/4 of the sides being kinda a wasteland (but better then adjacent wastelands) isn't a point to be complaining about.

Understood. Great points in both posts, actually. I especially agree about the politics, location and selling off part of Grafton Street.
The dead side - we'll see. I'm expecting (hoping) that when the bank bunker (Symcor) site next to The Dillon is redeveloped, it should be a major improvement to the area and will improve the general feel of the neighborhood greatly. I don't mind the Prince George/Keg areas of Market, it's usually fairly well travelled. The Carmichael side of the Homburg building on Market used to have a restaurant/bar in it, so maybe this could be revitalized once the NC is in operation?
Maybe Market St. side of NC will be a reasonable sacrifice?
