Yeah the whole John/Augusta - Augusta/James area is going to get so many more new patrons such welcome news! This is my neighbourhood and love all the restaurant's/bars in this area and I'm more than happy to share my fav spots with all the new people!

Not to mention new places may open up nearby

Hoping that some of the retail in the base of this building has some lively places. Augusta is pretty full, though there's one or two lawyer's offices that would be much nicer as bars/restos.

Retail further north on the west side of James is also largely vacant, except that cool book store.

Since I haven't been down there (Augusta St, or Hamilton for that matter) in a long time:
How does the Core Urban project
'The Chelsea' look?

This area's gonna have so many more people living nearby with this--75 James, and Cobalt/King William Urban Rentals.

If some more buildings get build on the south side of main, there’s potential for an interesting canyon

I honestly prefer high on one side and low on the others - canyons are just dark cold and windy. I like being able to see the sky hehe..

The wind tunnel effect of skyscraper canyons is one thing I dislike about large cities like Toronto. It can be downright brutal depending on the season

They've bricked over the huge wall visible from Main Street. Looks pretty good, much better than what Vranich would do.

Well that "wall" definitely does look better.. now we just need a building on that parking lot to cover it up!
