In reference to the conversation on the WestUrban 37th Thread about 37th St being a priority for a main street redo:

I looked up the city's priorities for Main Streets... Biggest takeaway for me was seeing Macleod Trail not being a priority. Isn't that the south's 'Main Street'? Not to mention that its a massive project, stretching 11 Kilometers from Willow Park Drive to the Bow River. You'd think you would want to get started on at least the portion from Glenmore to 17th Ave? A proper 'Main Street' could really draw some development to that corridor to really give it some life. The other parts, I agree with the city are not that important.
