Impact analysis
Taxpayers could end up footing a hefty bill depending on whether the city decides to restore an old historic building or overhaul a busy transit hub.
History buffs win if the prison gets saved, while daily commuters win if the bus depot finally gets the upgrade it desperately needs.
If the city mismanages either project, residents lose out through wasted tax dollars and ongoing transit headaches.
