^ Good to know Wyku, thanks!
On a somewhat random note, I was on 3rd Avenue today and thinking about how River Landing Village, and the condo tower especially, would impact the street once built (*knock on wood*). Due to the nature of the Parcel 'Y' lot lines, and the way 3rd Avenue extends more to the southeast as it approaches the Traffic Bridge, the condo tower on that northeast corner of the parcel seems likely to create something of a visual terminus for 3rd Ave.
Of course, the tower would not create a complete and nicely centred visual terminus like the Bessborough does for 21st, but it should certainly contribute to closing off the view from the street, especially from further north up 3rd Ave.
With the streetscaping project done, and a nice curved glass tower helping frame the southern endpoint, 3rd Avenue is gonna look fantastic! *knock on wood again*
