Hey, that's not bad at all. Certainly no worse looking than what's going up in much of Osborne Village.

Very exciting to see new infill development like this in this part of the city. Seems like such an obvious place to be revitalized.

I agree. Seeing the area between the Exchange and HSC move in a similar direction to West Broadway would be game changing. I cite WB specifically because it's an example of an area that has improved but without gentrifying so much that it is completely out of reach to lower income residents. Just having it become a reasonably safe and pleasant inner city neighbourhood to live in would be fantastic. Projects like this help to move things in that direction.
