    Toronto Toronto | Mirvish Village (Honest Ed's Redevelopment) | 85.04m | 26s | Westbank | Henriquez Partners

    They loved the concept and really felt like it would fit into this development. Is exactly what the team at Mirvish was looking for. Either than that I don’t have any updates.

    Toronto Toronto | 2485 Eglinton Ave West | 150.6m | 46s | Cityzen | gh3

    I’m at a loss for words, been askin myself this for awhile. I don’t know. You let me know when you find out because I am so irretreivably angry at city hall.

    Toronto Toronto | Regent Park: Phases 4 and 5 | 134.1m | 39s | Tridel | Karakusevic Carson Architects

    I think we all will wake up in a very different Toronto pretty soon with all of these kinds of renewal projects. Love to see how our city is changing, and how oftentimes neighbouring developments get inspired or pushed to create more thoughtfully designed communities and builds.

    Toronto Toronto | Regent Park: Phases 4 and 5 | 134.1m | 39s | Tridel | Karakusevic Carson Architects

    I know so many artists (musicians, performers, rappers, actors) that have become so successful, as well as people in my circle that grew up in these few apartment blocks in Regent. While i'm not sad to see these manhattan-style 'projects' go in exchange for beautiful Danish buildings...

    Toronto's Culture Production Boom

    I called open studio yesterday - as a printmaker the loss of this would be devastating. There is nowhere else in TO to print with a membership.

    Vaughan Toronto | Festival Condominiums | ?m | 59s | Menkes | Arcadis

    I had some family visiting from Alberta, and they were quite blown away by the cluster of high-rises in these centres surrounding Toronto, while flying into Pearson. They are not used to seeing many tall towers outside of downtown Calgary and on this scale. Had to remind them that the greater...

    Zoning Reform Ideas

    I think geary is going to be the next Ossington. I was recently in the artsy Bushwick neighbourhood in Brooklyn, NY and it had a lot of similarities to Geary. Very ugly but part of the charm.

    Toronto Toronto | Lower Don Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    What a hunk. I see some interesting discourse with that man whispering into his ear at the bottom-most photo...

    Toronto Cosburn Transit-Oriented Community | 100.4m | 29s | Infrastructure ON | SvN

    Love this overall but jheez looking at the renders this solidifies to me that the East-enders really need to step up their fashion game 😂 okay.. Leslieville is the exception.

    Toronto Toronto | Parliament Slip | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto | West 8

    Also - i'm not sure I am loving the canopy around the pools, blocking the view of the pool from the waterfront promenade. It seems like a barrier and this portion of the proposal looks kind of drab from a design standpoint.

    Toronto Toronto | Parliament Slip | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto | West 8

    God man I really hope so! I was really afraid that it would just turn into a school, which was contemplated as an option for the site. We could really use something cultural here to attract people here.

    Toronto Toronto | Mirvish Village (Honest Ed's Redevelopment) | 85.04m | 26s | Westbank | Henriquez Partners

    **I know someone who just signed a lease in one of the heritage homes for this site** All I can say is that it sounds very artsy, fun and hip and similar concepts have been very popular in cities like NY and London. Seems like it will be a first for Toronto. My lips are sealed but I want to be...

    Toronto Pape Transit-Oriented Community | 99.72m | 29s | Infrastructure ON | SvN

    OOH. I like however I don't like that there is parking. This is not a thing in Europe, time to shift away from any car dependence.
