Of course, this might be another 150 years down the line.

I think the East Block enclosure may have been shelved after saner heads prevailed.

The judicial building was killed by Harper; not sure when it will be reinstated, if ever. Its purpose might be eventually taken over by West Memorial after its long-term "temporary" use by the SCC is over in a few decades.

Ditto the Justice-Confed infill; that will probably be deferred in favour of status quo, or more rented space on Sparks or Queen. (131 and I think 151 Queen already house a lot of administrative offices, and the old La Promenade is now Valour, housing MP's offices.)
