She said it!

But anyway, I do think that the direct vicinity of Carling LRT station is a great place to build 30-42 storey (maybe 3-4) buildings + a few 15-20 somethings on Champagne. And also build 6-8 storey mid rises along Preston to replace the decrepit buildings.

That being said should really look in to converting the O-train to electric double track LRT with direct Airport to Downtown service and a station at Gladstone ASAP. O-Train as it exists (or even doubled to every 8 minutes) cannot handle thousands more people on one station.
