I am regularly house sitting a short walk from Eagle Creek and i have to say it clearly has been success. It is busier than I had expected.
Even though it is nothing exciting at all in terms of look and feel it does seem to be building a regular community there. I am seeing regulars are the Starbucks.
What I do like about it is that there is a Y, housing and offices at the site and not just retail. And of course it is walking distance from the hospital and is a place to park near VGH without having to pay their extortionate parking rates
