Imperial is going to have a lot of turnover and they are going to have a hell of a time retaining younger staff.
Who the heck wants to work in a "campus"? The word just brings thoughts of working for Initech (Office Space) and depresses the hell of out me.
I'll take my (nearly) downtown office (10th ave SW) and my 15 minute walking commute over some soul destroying cube farm job at Imperial. Maybe the rest of the big Oil companies will move out and some more innovative companies can take over the core.
Transit in this city is designed to bring people in and out of the core. Trying to do anything else is atrociously painful - I feel nothing but pity for Imperial employees right now.
