Realizing that we have only seen preliminary renders, my concern would be that once again, green space is going to be privatized (and yes, I realize that that there is not much green space on this stretch. The Waterpark towers offer a green buffer between their buildings and the street. This render (as yet) does not. If the developer suggested street architecture elements (for instance benches, bike racks and trees to provide shade) then it would go some of the way towards making the space more friendly to the neighbourhood. Yet another stretch of hard surfaces does nothing to improve walkability.
