Landmark on Robson signals retail strip continuity with completion

"At ground level, about 20,000 sq ft of retail/restaurant uses will activate a 330 ft-long span of Robson Street.
The continuous retail/restaurant uses — within 10 commercial units — will greatly enhance the retail strip and encourage westward foot traffic flow, which is also aided by a generous building setback that enables a much wider pedestrian sidewalk.
Currently, commercial real estate firm Marcus & Millichap is leasing these retail/restaurant units, which range in size from about 800 sq ft to up to 2,712 sq ft, with most of these units featuring a unique mezzanine level. These units are available as of this month.
In great contrast, the previous hotel building offered highly limited active streetfront uses, with blank walls, a hotel driveway, and ground-level office frontage dominating the block’s frontage — negatively interrupting the retail strip continuity between Robson Village and Lower Robson. The redevelopment bridges this previous gap in the retail strip."
Looks like sidewalk is almost ready to be opened. Maybe it is already open as DH's pics are noted as Jun 1st.
