Just how are people supposed to get from the Canadian Tire to the Adult Video store with that barrier there....see, elevated transit looms over every day life!
You are forgetting though, surface LRT will convert Eglinton East into a charming, European inspired mixed use community. A community which would be utterly destroyed by the vicissitudes of an elevated guideway.
Obviously I'm saying his tongue in cheek, but reading some perspectives (Christopher Hume's article on Eglinton East & transit), it does seem like surface LRT transit planning is becoming too intimately bound up with the Avenues program. Not that design and transit aren't linked, but building an LRT wont change the fact it's a >200ft wide corridor in Scarborough surrounded by big box parking lots.
