I wish we could see taller buildings like 40 storey proposals for this area, but even if nothing changes I think this is going to turn into a great neighbourhood over the next decade or so. It has a lot of underdeveloped lots and is well-located with respect to the downtown, transit use, shops and services, the shipyard, etc.

Downtown Dartmouth is in a very similar sort of situation. If it takes off along with Young/Robie, Halifax will have a much more substantial and interesting urban core. I think Halifax will make a great city of 500,000 or more since it already has these areas "roughed in".
