Larry, thought it was best to keep the promises made in the heady early days of the deep penetration of automotive culture to land development speculators who had made purchases and long bets on the east mountain.
without a long view to the social impacts to the greater urban lower city by en large, he did what, turns to be one of the worst cases of Hamilton history pandering to corporate interests and automotive culture.
it is a damn shame that Hamilton could not prevent the Red Hill express-way a highway that has expedited the loss of farmland and the decay of the urban fabric of Hamilton.
I don't buy his excuse, and it can't be called anything more than an excuse that he was keeping promises made 60 years ago by unapologetic automotive mono culture neophytes. It seems to be that his lack of progressive view has helped stymie the evolution and rehabilitation and fragmentation of urban vrs sprawl inhabitants of Hamilton.
He has truly and totally exacerbated the efforts of Hamiltonians interested in a renaissance of the city culturally and economically.
one of the blackest marks on Hamilton's history.
