"The revitalization of St. Clair Avenue north of the Green/Arts Barn Project along with the redevelopment of the transportation infrastructure along St. Clair Avenue provides an opportunity to revitalize the area and linkages between the residents and St. Clair by transforming the area into a "pedestrian pocket. (Southworth, 1997)" This project is of interest at this time because the area presently has the elements required to be a successful neighbourhood, as described by Michael Southworth in a research article that looks at the importance of the walkability of urban neighbourhoods."
