I really like the book stores too.
My prediction, Tim Hortons. It's got to be a coffee shop. Remember the original proposal? How the Charcoal Group was going to put two separate restaurants in? One on the main floor and then a rooftop bar?

Oh true, you're right.
Well there's a Shoppers on the other side of City Hall, so rule that out. Hmmm other generic, unexciting retailers...

Those exist, but I think they're pretty standard businesses that exist in any area of a city. Apart from the used bookstores, vintage clothing stores and maybe old video games you can get most of that in whatever part of the city you live in, so there's still no real strong incentive for people to go shop downtown who live elsewhere. If you live down there, then you're covered for necessities. Though even the ability to do groceries is minimal, depending on shopping habits.

You're absolutely right. These chains wouldn't move to DTK if it wasn't viable.
