Wouldn't be surprised if an express Tims is opening in Market Square for Sep2020 as is. Student hours focus etc.I would be surprised if tims didn't open something to service the students which is fine it fits there. It does not fit at prominent location in downtown in a historic building. this is a classic example of the same boring things going into new commercial spaces. You see it all over Toronto. building built with ground floor retail is guaranteed to have a dentist office, a bank, a shoppers, and a generic coffee chain. unfortunately I don't think there is anything that can be done. These companys have the ability to sign 3-5 years leases with out batting an eye and obviously landlords love that.
Downtown is evolving/changing that's for sure. As I've told visitors and mentioned on here before, 3 years from now it will be very different, 5 years from now totally transformed.
