    I still prefer what we got! This city needed more USB ports, I can never find a free one to charge my airpods

    Toronto Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Yeah, it felt like the guideway itself went pretty quickly but it's really taking a dog's age to wrap up these last parts. I think the Paton underpass lighting can change colour; it was green a few days ago.

    It can become another Toronto shibboleth, so you can tell whether the speaker is a local or not, like "Baby Point" or "Spadina" (or "Toronto" itself)

    what i'm getting from this is, the new river park play area needs an exhibit called HOW MUCH YOU WEIGH IN A BLACK HOLE and it's just one of those machines that crushes cars into little cubes

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

    If memory serves, the plan was for QQ to continue east and end at Cherry Street.

    How many ontario line station entrances are former banks? At least three, right?

    Toronto Toronto | Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Moynihan looks sharp, but it has many of the same problems outlined in Willybru's post about Union: the outdoor spaces are cold and uninviting, there's no greenery, animation or anywhere to sit, and the interior hall also notoriously has nowhere to sit.

    John Street Revitalization

    Just a buckwild timeline. In the time it's taken to even start this relatively minor project, I've changed careers (twice) and genders (once)

    Hey, we're coming up on 15 years since this thread was started, what's another year delay amirite

    My approach has always been, you draw out the mmm sound, plus, importantly, you start low, and then increase both volume and pitch so that "uff" comes out as a loud squeak.

    Toronto Toronto | Galleria 01 & 02 | 92.65m | 29s | Almadev | Core Architects

    The street level is dreadful, just a long, flat, undifferentiated wall of glass.

    Toronto Toronto | GO Transit: Davenport Diamond Grade Separation | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    I'm not in one of these houses, but my place is just as close to the same railway line, just south of Bloor. To be honest, when the windows are shut, I barely notice the trains (and they're not yet very frequent anyway). In the warmer months we tend to leave the windows open for airflow and...

    Toronto Toronto | IMMIX | 131.06m | 38s | QuadReal | a—A

    What a great streetscape (aside from the lack of trees)! I'd love to walk along there and explore. (Setting aside the impossibility of time travel, of course, and that back then I couldn't walk down the street without being assaulted and/or thrown in jail)
