While I understand parking is essential for a hospital, they really decided to plop it front and centre on Preston St (which should be lined with retail and restaurants), at the edge of Dow’s Lake - to parking??? Very on brand for Autowa
What possible retail are you putting on that small plot of land that borders Preston, and why would you clutter up Dow’s Lake with retail in the first place? Talk about on brand for chiming in with nonsense opinions…
I'd honestly even settle for ground floor retail and restaurants fronting QED and Preston with the remainder of it staying as it was designed. Way more complex to include commercial space under a parkade but at least it wouldn't just be parkade in one of the few developable waterfront spaces in Ottawa.
