design help: adding a distribution layer

planning of adding a distribution layer to some of our network closets. currently we're running a collapsed core (access->core) w/ the access layer doing L3. the main goal is to conserve ports in the core side. we have old buildings and running new fiber is just not feasible at the moment.

what's the simplest way to add the dist layer as far as svi's (on the A layer) go. can i just L2 the uplink trunks from the A layer to the core? i'm familiar with the concept but have never put it in practice.
