                                        In terms of we have so many projects together, I could probably have you here for eight hours, but one thing really quickly.

                                        In the line of investments, we know that EDC has mentioned investments into properties including the King Solomon and other, the meat distribution area in Sunset Park.

                                        How has that been unfolding?

                                        Is the wholesale meat market?

                                        Yeah.

                                        In between, yes.

                                        We have been working closely with the tenants there.

                                        We are now fully leased up I believe and have scheduled a number of shorter term capital projects.

                                        You know, we've got some great tenants there, great local employers, and we're eager to see that facility be modernized further and grow.

                                        So I guess we'll we'll get further updates.
