Was looking at the renders of the "Transit and Trails Fuse City and Country at the Residences at Central Park" article and noticing the main building north of Sheppard wasn't planned. This it a project I have mixed feelings about, not because I don't think the new platform with direct access to higher density developments and the subway doesn't make sense because it definitely does, but because of parking. I'm not a big fan of big parking garages at stations because to me it defeats the purpose... it is giving up on the last mile (or first mile as it normally is). However, normally space under the freeway is completely underutilized and the use of the space under the 401, with lighting and parking, was a good use of the space. I hope they can come up with creative ways to make that space useful after the station moves, or make the 400m walk bearable with proper weather protection.
