Ugh .. they're going to condo that whole street?
I like the neighbourhood getting denser, but I was hoping that street would remain just retail and not all towers ... even though some of those stores really suck.

I grew up in that neighborhood for 20 years and I welcome the development that people want to see happen there.
I'm not sure how other people think about 10th street, but I hate the Lido cafe and the crap buildings along the east side of that road. There's so much potential to do some cool stuff there. Screw nostalgia... people need to understand that new development can be fun and exciting.

Walking down that street on a nice sunny day is a pretty nice thing to do though
As far as no one being able to afford the neighbourhood, that was long ago. I'd love to live in a house there, but it's not in my financial universe.
