And neither is Joseph is a substantial corridor. So Gaukel Street itself, plus a portion of the terminal property would make for a fine extension of the park to the LRT station at Charles, and it could cross Joseph Street in shared space fashion.
Exactly. This would also give two dimensionality to Downtown, which up until now hast been mostly a linear zone. Essentially shooting to create an area demarcated by Victoria, Joseph, Benton-Frederick and Weber that should become a downtown core, as opposed to just King St. with Victoria Park adjacent to it for added attraction.
