Moreover, the neighbourhood itself suffers from an absence of grocery stores, community and recreational facilities, and green space. The primary source of green space is Scott Park which consists of three baseball diamonds.

So true. In such a densely populated area; the only grocery store in the immediate vicinity is the FreshCo @ Gage & Barton. For a drug store do the local residents have to go to the Centre on Barton or Main and Sherman? An aerial view from the satellite pictures on google clearly illustrates the lack of greenspace. You would think with the density there would be more walkable solutions for everyday necessities.

I am really torn about the Ivor Wynne reno solution. It lacks the critical mass component that is crucial for any real type of urban renewal & it could cost the only baseball diamonds and greenspace in that area.
