@lana_stewart@megberetta @Ah__medley @cmckenney@ShawnMenard1 Does anyone in this thread actually live in the GT at Central & Queen Elizabeth? I do! Traffic is backed up on the “designated arterial routes” because of the QE closures. It’s a hot mess! Poor city planning. Tsk, tsk.
@JimWatsonOttawa property values are BOOMING across Ottawa. The average sale price for a residential property in Ottawa last month was $717,914, a jump of 27% from last year’s figures. Time to LOWER the mill rate!!!!
@megberetta@cmckenney@ShawnMenard1 Property value in the GT/Glebe are already high & rising. Currently the most expensive DT neighbourhoods to buy in. Property values are skyrocketing across the city regardless. Maybe the City of Ottawa can use all that tax$ to repair roads and cracked sidewalks in the GT/Glebe
@cmckenney@megberetta@ShawnMenard1 Sounds like a great idea if you don’t live in the Golden Triangle or you don’t have to commute. Queen Elizabeth closures upsets downtown commuting, Elgin St is a parking lot. Create a High Line linear park like in NYC. PS I pay 16k a year in property taxes to live in the Triangle
