I would not be so presumptuous as to purport to speak for Glebe residents generally
, but my view is that it is a relatively important corner to waste on parking, and the City's studies say that there isn't a big demand for parking over and above the 2nd Ave garage. A garage there would probably only be busy when big events are on at Lansdowne.
I expect that the business community would be happy with that idea, as businesses always tend to be keen on extra parking. I don't think it would do much for the shopping strip though, no matter how much it is prettied up, but I wouldn't be keen on a parking structure there.
