Building a heating plant in a residential neighbourhood near downtown doesn't typically get applause.
But a group of suits and green enthusiasts loudly put their hands together yesterday for the official announcement of a utility service being built smack along Victoria's Upper Harbour on Tyee Road.

The quality isn't very good but I think it's just a matter of them fine-tuning it. I like the idea of webcams at project sites :tup:

If the streetcar proposal ever goes through then I would imagine it would have to be a two lane addition.
Once Railyards and Dockside are built out there is going to be quite the population base in that area so traffic will continue to worsen unless significant public transit is put in.

City planners are hesitant to improve flow into Vic West because it would increase capacity for commuters finding shortcuts to get to Colwood and Langford.

I'd sure love to see some of the waterfront now occupied by various industrial businesses (Point Hope etc.) turned into some sort of public market a la Granville Island. Not the whole site mind you, but interspersed amongst the water-based industry... some retail, library annex maybe, a theatre etc. This would tie in Dockside Green (a project aimed toward the future) with the city's past along this strip of the waterfront. Just a random thought
Thought of your posting when I saw the photo of the RivTow Captn. Bob up on the shore at the shipyard.. Point Hope Maritime is working to reestablish the Point Hope shipyard as a foremeost ship repair facility on the coast...
Unlike many people who want to make their money out of replacing the working harbour in Victoria with condos, Ian Maxwell has been investing in the future of the Upper Harbour as a working harbour...
If one goes through their website..
http://www.pointhope...ws/130thann.htm
you can see their plan.. which includes some of the ideas that you have mentioned above..
However, in contrast to your musing... "I'd sure love to see some of the waterfront now occupied by various industrial businesses (Point Hope etc.) turned into some sort of public market a la Granville Island. "
It's Point Hope (in concert with Dockside Green) which is the "engine" that is trying to accomplish this..
