Agreed. 8th street is already a legit corridor, and already is arguably the the best Beltline-DT connector. With the upcoming upgrades to 8th, and a grocery store along the route, that lot will be a desirable place for a residential build.

Local 522 on 6th ave downtown is all boarded up. Does anyone know if there is any plan for it?

The $30M only funds it to 10th Ave with temporary measures to 12th Ave. I don't like it when they propose these temporary measures, because that gives more reason to delay phase 2.

Yeah I didn’t realize that until I looked at the city website later. That is kinda wack. The part of the project where most residents walk daily isn’t even proposed with a detailed design yet.

Saw a drilling rig on the NE corner of 14st and 12ave SW where the dollarama is, anyone know of a development for this site?
Nothing that I've heard of. A full construction drilling rig?

It still makes me irrationally angry that this street (and now the ever busy 11 street SW I assume) have been and seemingly will continue to be neglected by the city in favour of complete redevelopment of streets like 37th St SW that has been completely redone from Richmond road to 17th Ave and has probably 1/1000 of the pedestrian use of either of those inner city streets.
