There isn't really a sizeable Loblaws north of the Queensway west of downtown within the Greenbelt (the Westboro Superstore does not count) and they'd have enough clout to get into that prime spot.

As for the old CT Westboro location, I have no idea, but I'm sure condo developers are falling over each other's feet trying to get that site. Watch the nuns across the street oppose any tall buildings that would threaten their privacy. That high wall on Richmond isn't for nothing
yeah I've heard some rumblings about Loblaws doing something there... I think they might own the site, but I'm not 100% on that.

the last I heard for the Westboro location was a rumour on "Miss Vicky's" blog that it had been bought by a residential developer
