A lot of these projects are set to be completed in 2021/2022 and newer ones in 2023 (even taking into account COVID). For me the biggest indicator is going to be how many new businesses decide to move forward with plans of moving into or expanding their DTK presence. Jobs = people living close to work = businesses opening to serve this population.
All with A wrench in it due to COVID. 3 years to even 5 years is what I consider 'over night'
Thanks! I appreciate that driving through DTK on a Sunday evening is much different than being there on a weekday at lunch hour. I also agree that the new condo developments are going to make a difference over time. It's exciting to know of so many developments on the horizon. Personally, I think it will take approx. 10 years for DTK to have a safer, more bustling feel outside of working hours (and for some of the grungier businesses to turn over between Victoria and Frederick). I wonder if the City/Region can do anything else to help move this process along.
