I'm no longer surprised when I find a project that gets announced to be underwhelming. City planners, developers and architectural offices here are seriously lacking in ambition. We've got one of the best universities in the world here - and one of the best architectural and planning programs - yet none of that seems to stay here in the region itself. Students get a taste of Rome and then have zero desire to stick around in a mid sized Canadian city...
Hopefully they do have interesting long term visions for this project, but I have no real hopes that it'll happen for a very long time.
