    Toronto Toronto | Queens Quay & Water's Edge Revitalization | ?m | ?s | Waterfront Toronto

    I was travelling on a westbound 509 streetcar that was at the stop right next to where the collision occurred. The tour bus was travelling eastbound along Queens Quay and for some reason veered across the yellow line, clipping a small white truck that was travelling westbound. I didn’t SEE...

    Toronto Toronto | Garrison Crossing (was Fort York Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge) | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | Pedelta

    While I agree that the updated design providing access to the Ordnance Triangle is an improvement, there's one key thing that I'm not really sold on. It's the orientation of the ramp that leads up to the bridge on the south side. In the previous design linked above, access to the ramp was from...

    Agreed. Not like it would be the only route or option. It's like complaining that a flight of stairs is inaccessible when there's a ramp a few feet away.

    Sorry for the low quality picture (I didn't want to get too close), but another accident at Rees. Speculation on my part as I arrived after the fact, but it looks like a westbound car was attempting to make a left across the ROW and was hit pretty badly by a streetcar. Most of the damage is on...

    Thinking they would only really need to paint it near the intersections where cars are actually able to enter the ROW, rather than the enter length. Hopefully that would keep the maintenance costs under control.

    Thanks for the source article. Absolutely a great idea to couple it with strict enforcement. I wonder if it could even be accomplished using cameras.

    That would work too. Though I love that there's a car driving on the red paint in that picture.

    I know the area is extra chaotic right now since the project isn't quite complete, but whatever eventual signage is put in place, it had better be VERY OBVIOUS because otherwise it won't be long before someone is seriously injured or killed illegally driving on (or illegally turning through) the...

    Howard Street and Glen Road

    Here's an image of the same house, taken in 1913. What a shame.

    St. Lawrence Market

    FYI, Paddington's Pump (greasy-spoon diner/peameal bacon sandwich slingers) on the NW Corner of the Market is open everyday. The rest of the market is caged off, though.

    East Danforth

    Oh my, this thread has been an interesting read. Anyway, I'm a long time reader, first time poster. I'm pretty new to the area (I'm on Coxwell a bit south of Danforth) but in my short time, it's been great. I've walked the stretch of Danforth west from Coxwell to Chester a few times and...
