I knew someone would point that out.
300 units, at 1.6 average occupancy that's about 500 new people to the neighborhood.
500 new people using the Kootenay and Boundary cross walks to get to the Kootenay Bus loop since apparently they wont be driving due to no parking stalls. I assume the idea is they use the busses.
I maintain that there are few areas with infrastructure less prepared to take on this amount of density.
On a day when the bridge is slow, traffic backs up well into the Heights along Hastings, and well down Boundary.
This is such a choke point, to be adding this much housing on this corner is a bad idea.
This is simply poor planning.
