Glad to hear that this is getting underway
500 people is going to be AWESOME for that part of town.

Just imagine a summer day around 4 o'clock. There would be the normal cruise ship and other visitors walking the boardwalk, the 500 people from Emera leaving from work maybe out for a stroll first, the Westin guests and all the residents of downtown south.

I can't even imagine what a difference there would be if this, famers market, salter street, and the Alexander were all built. Talk about massive urban renewal!

A NSP museum? That would be interesting to say the least. "And heres the part you've all been waiting for....the real reasons behind our power outages"

I don't even think the whole ground floor would be big enough to display all of the reasons...

But seriously something there would be nice. At least the Farmer's Market is going ahead so there will be some retail in the area.
