Any chance of a developer coming up with a dense plan that did not include a forest of 25 storey buildings (or 30 or 45 or whatever...) on a really tight lot? If Northdale had been able to develop into something that was all 6-10 storeys, and a complete neighbourhood with housing stock and services that fit a range of housing needs (eg singles, communal living, families etc) then it might have gone a long way to reshaping Waterloo Region into something that was a good example of a dense city. Maybe in 20 years (I say hopefully), Northdale will have matured into something, but for now, who knows. (I admit that I have not ventured into Northdale other than to drive along Albert St as I haven't had any need to do so)
