Certainly in the Gastown example there was a huge amount of economic spinoff. In terms of some of the buildings that have been restored, Water Street in Gastown was sort of souvenir shops. Now the second part of Water Street is becoming upscale furniture. Fluevog is in there. That's the economic spinoff, and obviously the private sector has invested heavily with a small number of incentives. There is the tourism factor, which will encourage more employment, obviously, and for young people it is a great place to get started in the tourism business.
There is lots of data out there to show that there are huge economic spinoffs from restoring heritage buildings and neighbourhoods as well.
