What excites you about the future of your business and the neighborhood?
The increased residential density is an exciting transition, although it will come with some growing pains. The truth is, it may be a necessary step for the vitality of the businesses on Tennyson St. Historically the neighborhood has seen a tremendous amount of commercial turnover. Hopefully the increased density is just what the district needs to ensure sustainability of the existing businesses in the neighborhood.
