That wasn't the case with all of those homes. At the time, I remember that there were the usual human interest pieces about different families who would be displaced. For instance, one had made significant alterations to the house to accommodate a family member with a disability.
I think there might have been some questioning about whether a given property absolutely needed to be demolished, but not questions about whether the street should have been widened. I don't think you could have found a city councillor willing to propose a motion to stop the widening to preserve those homes, and that's an understatement.
