There is a large tract of land below the hill, where the temporary buildings were located for decades. It is right next to the Trillium Line. This seems to be the most sensible relocation of the Civic Hospital and will have no impact on the Central Experimental Farm whatsoever.
I don't favour redeveloping the Experimental Farm. It is big part of this city's history and gives Ottawa a unique character and welcome refuge for Ottawa residents. This talk about wasted hydro carbons may be true but we need to consider quality of life and I believe the CEF adds to our quality of life. By the same argument, they should pave over Central Park in New York City.
