There isn't much doubt that the interchange will go, so I'm not sure of the point of the article except to give Sloane some ink. But even at that it raises some questions.
- 80% developable land seems very unrealistic looking at the street grid in HBD
- "Even Phillip Pacey has no argument with tall buildings in this area."? What is he, some lind of czar that has to give royal assent?
- She is presuming significant residential development, which, given the office space deficit, seems rather unlikely
- How the heck does HRM have a $80M surplus given that they were singing the blues about snow removal costs and are planing to raise taxes nearly 6%?
As usual, anything Sloane says needs to be regarded as highly suspect.
