I agree with Acitta. It's very much not a dump, and we have far more people and businesses here than before. There is no question that many people do want to live downtown, hence the rents (and house prices) are relatively higher downtown than further away. Some people certainly don't want to live downtown, but that's OK, too.
That's not to say that we don't have issues to work on, but I'm cautiously optimistic that the regional and city councils are (albeit ever so slowly) moving in the right direction on these.
It will be interesting to see how DTK copes with the high tech downturn, WFH, and the coming (probably) recession. At a minimum, I would expect the pace of change to slow down for several years.
