Step 1 is always renovation of existing buildings.
In Toronto, most of the new office space downtown in the 2000s was in renovated warehouses/factories. It was only once that space started to become more scarce, and momentum on downtown offices really picked up that we started to see new skyscrapers.
I would think that at this stage, any new development incorporated into something like the Huck Glove property would be a residential component. How likely that is in the short term, I couldn't say.
