unimaginative:
To be fair, BCE galleria is actually the public art component of the project - which still applies to current developments. The comparison to Ritz/RBC is moot since the former didn't require any rezoning - the development is as-of-right, I believe. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the park is the actual benefit from that rezoning approval. A more apt comparison is probably the new BA - and in this case, the developer did have to provide heritage preservation (expensive, though arguable of somewhat dubious in merit) and other Section 37 benefits as a condition of approval.
