The remodeling and restoration of Union Station and the construction of a new wave of business and condominium towers is central to this area's forecast growth. "Forecasters expect the downtown population to grow 80 per cent to 130,000 by 2031. With the financial district just to the north and the new high-rise South Core on the other side, Union is right at the centre."
