Over a year ago we read that there was a plan to redo Elgin Street. Well more recent news has the street partly shutting down next month and then completely in 2019. Two years of construction! What does two years of construction translate to in Ottawa construction time.
I wonder what the perspective is of what downtown should look like according to different generations. Partly I understand the widening of the sidewalks. Partly I miss the wider streets. Must say going down Main street by car is pleasant. Though there is the slip to the right, oh no left, oh no right again.
We’ll soon have O’Connor Street back at which point we’ll surrender Elgin to its destiny.
