Lister Block above all. Any transit improvements are next. I'm pretty excited about the proposed GO train service at James North and possibility of VIA coming back to town.
Also hoping something will happen with Connaught, but who knows. I think that one day we're all just gonna get shocked when work starts happening out of the blue again. Just as quick as the place locked it's doors in 2004.
Mackay/Victoria should be done by summer I would guess. Will definitely pick up the life on that side of Gore. The 5 story across King at John should be done then, as well as the 11 story in International Village. Those two projects are gonna bring TONS of people back downtown, living in the core.
2008 and the years following is gonna be one hell of a time for Hamilton.
