    well it could be turned into a shopping center, but due to economic conditions not happening, that and our lovely city planners "foward" thinking

    Sure wasn';t it being cleaned up until perhaps 16 months ago....had to be cleaned first so little anyone could do.

    I seem to vaguely recall some development being proposed for the site just prior to it being cleaned up. I don't know if it ever even got as far as the council planning stage.

    I think it's part of the failed decentralization plan.
