Vic Park bus barns is the way to go.

I like that they are upgrading to protected bike lanes, but I wish they were keeping both 14th and 15th as one ways.

Yeah definitely an unfortunate decision to take away so much space from the plaza and surround it with even more dead institutional buildings.

Are they using high floor trains? Wouldn't that be a total re-design?

Good - plenty of spandex dorks and e-bike losers ripping way too fast on the pathways lately.

AECOM is not the same as AECON.

Why not run at grade on 11 Ave turning north onto 1st Street SW? Might have to dig out the CP underpass a little. They could then do a short cut and cover tunnel for a station immediately north of 9th Ave, come back to grade north of 7th, and then have an elevated station near Sien Lok Park...

The ring road is an excellent infrastructure investment as is the Green Line. It's not just about providing access for drivers (which is nice), it's about having a functional transportation network for goods and services to move throughout the region.

Phase two looks rough compared to phase 1...

For a building like this - it's better to not make it stand out.
