I think the City did pretty well at Lansdowne. A lot of new condos paying taxes and they are getting their returns, even if OSEG is still in the red.
I am not convinced that public money is the right thing to do. But I feel, like Kelly Egan does, that there is only one Lebreton Flats. Maybe more city involvement, not gifting but financing some sort of arrangement , could have made a difference?
Then again, with Melnyk and Ruddy it probably wouldn't have mattered. I just don't feel like waiting another 5 years when, right now, there should be dump trucks and cranes making a mess right now.
Hopefully Devcore can simply take over/partner the RVL bid. Somehow.
