This street is pretty interesting since it was remade as a traffic sewer in the 1960's and connected to the interchange to nowhere that's coming down. Eventually in addition to the development the street itself will be overhauled. In 2000 it was a 2/10, now it's a 4/10, and eventually it could be 8/10.
The land on the right is strange because it's DND land that was originally tied to the Citadel and had barracks on it until the postwar era. The Staples site was a military hospital. For some reason the corner parcel was zoned "hotel only" and the municipality fought against the developer who wanted to put up an apartment so nothing got built, then years later there was a housing shortage and the municipality paid to put in trailers.
