at 2087 spaces, I doubt that it will be that full, at any time.
markham wants 4,000 spaces for its new arena, but that is in MARKHAM (next to no transit connections). I would expect much less to be necessary for the ACC, likely around 1500-2000. the Skydome, or, errrr...., the Rogers centre, will likely require around 4000. this is likely easily provided with the parking in the Rogers centre itself, the pinnacle centre, the new 400ish spot queens quay garage, the convention centre, the garage on simcoe directly south of the gardiner, and a 422 spot garage under the plaza directly to the west of the stadium.
2087 wow, didn't know that. Is it ever full?
Today there was a fire alarm in my building. I had to walk down 33 floors to begin my commute. You couldn't get back up even if you wanted to because stairs are inaccessible from outside or the ground floor, and elevators stopped working automatically.
In buildings this large, fire alarms happen fairly frequently. How would you like to walk your 70 year old grandfather down 50 sets of stairs in the event of a fire?
Have any of the people clamouring for residential supertalls ever lived for an extended period of time in a tall building? No one I know who has lived above 30 stories for a while would want to live any taller than that. Ever.

I lived on the 38th floor of a tower built in the '90s for a couple of years. Fire alarms were rare and I'd gladly live at that level again or higher.
Anecdotes for all!
