I know it's years away, but I really wish they would decide one way or the other on the route. As it stands now all the properties along Centre Street are detriorating rapidly. Maybe that is the City's intent - so they can pick it up at a lower price.

The decision on North Central LRT alignment will likely be made within about a year. Remember that only a year or so ago, the alignment was still slated for Nose Creek - so it takes a bit of time to determine the feasibility of a more central alignment.
You're right that a decision needs to be made in the interest of properties along the corridor. Landowners are unwilling to invest until they have some certainty. There's a lot of potential redevelopment up and down Centre Street, which I think is the only viable alignment for the North Central LRT. In the shorter term, there will be a dedicated transitway built (phase 1) between the bluff and 24th avenue. This will include complete streetscape upgrade as well.
