The one going up across the street will really make this area feel filled in. The building going up at Frederick and Lancaster which is nearby should bring up the foot traffic around this part of downtown.
This area is so close to the KW Art Gallery, Centre in the Square and KPL Art Gallery it'd be a pretty nice area for artists/the arts if there was more affordable places to live. With so many good restaurants, community centered shops and the market it would be perfect to have a kind of alternative/artsy area of the city, kind of like a Kensington Market. Old, gritty but lively.
There used to be many houses in that general area converted to multiple apartments that were fairly affordable, back in the day. Are they now gone/expensive?
