Quite a large development and certainly making it look like a McCormick LRT station would have been a good idea. Not sure its much to look at and a bit disappointing to see the large podium scant a single 3-bedroom unit, but to be expected.
Additional stations can always be constructed (though it's a complicated process on an active line) when necessary. That said, I doubt we'd see that happen for a long time...especially here. While there is some density in the area, it's primarily townhouse complexes and single family homes. It's a 10 minute walk from R&T station at most or a short trip on the number 9. Apart from the winter months, that's perfectly walkable.
Fair point, this one itself is not that far. I just generally think of having lived a bit west of the former ION stop on Parkside and would think those people might be a bit of a long walk to the R&T in that case.
