There is just no room to put anything else there without screwing up traffic, parking, businesses in the mall, and making it even more dangerous for kids from the school.

5 years? There was a proposal to build a Wendy's in that corner when I was in high school at Pearson, in 1993-1996.
I don't know how the parking is going to be handled, as that lot is often close to full during the day. But then again, the high school students crossing the street aren't going to taking up parking stalls, and evening customers don't come when all the mall shops are open. I don't know the answer.
I don't think a McDonalds there is going to significantly increase the number of students crossing the street, as they probably already do to go to the mall.
