I don’t expect every building within 100m of the LRT to be linked to a fully-enclosed LRT station but not to take the opportunity of building a new LRT line and a new transit hub at the same time with fully protected links between the different modes simply makes no sense.
I never really thought about it that way, but you're right. And it does make no sense.
I imagine there'll be a hub-and-spoke semi-covered approach similar to the Charles St terminal's pedestrian overpass. There's certainly not been a lot of attention paid to winter weather in previous designs, so why start now simply because the proposed building would create higher wind conditions?
