Ok then.
I'm not as up in arms about this development as
GeoNerd seems to be. Expanding a medium box store parking lot. Whatever. Not expecting parkland for play structures and dog walkers; that's the City's responsibility, and they've been doing a decent job in Le Plateau. But
jt-mtl presenting this as a Triumph in urban design is a bit much.
I'm glad the City of Gatineau is cracking down on box store developments and hope this is the last one we see built (in Gatineau, because Ottawa and most other jurisdictions continue to embrace car-centric designs).
