There's something wrong with this rendering: The proposal is shown simply too short compared to the existing and other proposed buildings around it. If its north-south-east-west coords are all correct though, how do you end up with something that's looking about a third shorter than it...

PRESS RELEASE: Ontario Celebrates Opening of Mon Sheong Dr. Paul Woo Long-Term Care Centre New home brings 224 modern long-term care beds to the community March 12, 2026 Ministry of Long-Term Care STOUFFVILLE — The Ontario government is celebrating the opening of the new Mon...

I'm too freaked out to have a good bike in the city too — but more for where on a street I would leave it locked up when out on it for any reason, moreso even than having it in a condo locker. There should still be locker space for beaters though. Figuring out the quantity though will be tough...

Providing funds to the City for bikeshare in lieu is smart, but removing up to 50% of the bike parking space seems overboard to me. Somehow I doubt enough bikeshare spaces will show up to meet the demand if that reduction becomes routine. 42

I've been wondering if and when we'd get reports from developers on how full the bike lockers are in buildings that have been opening with one locker for every suite. Are we about the hear that they are seeing half empty bike locker rooms across the city? Because if there's way less uptake than...

The Beverly arm was never the main entrance. The Barton Myers expansion had components in more than one spot. 42

No, @Red October is correct, the arm that stretches down Beverly Street was from the 1993 Barton Myers PoMo expansion. 42

Dammit! If only I had done a kotsy on Monday, we could have had a full week of kotsy PoTDs! 42

There's no indication that construction would start here for many months. Lots of time to unveil concepts, get feedback, make changes, and still start some portion of it before the end of the year. 42

Yikes, what an awful come-down. Horrible bunker now. I hope it never gets built. 42

The Province has not given City Council the power to make decisions based on style, so we do not have an architecture czar. Urban design decisions all have to be made based on planning principles built on measurable, quantifiable factors. If you'd like that changed, petition the Ontario...

A 19,900 sq ft gym is planned for the 2nd floor bullnose space. The second largest unit on this level about 8,300 sq ft. A third unit of about 2,000 sq ft is down a long hallway. I doubt either of those units would attract food-related commercial. On the ground level, the largest Commercial...

Damage can occur during shipping, storage, or the installation process. Fixes always depend upon the availability of similar pieces. Sometimes there are spares that can make for quick fixes. Sometimes replacement pieces have to be specially fabricated. It often makes more sense to place the...

If the third tower is Chrome... did the first two also get monikers I missed? Naugahyde? Bakelite? Pleather? Formica? Insulbrick? 42

Still 687 suites, still 5 elevators. 137.4 suites per elevator... and I still say that one suite per floor should be sacrificed for one more elevator shaft, allowing remaining suites to be marginally larger while dropping the number to 640, now served by 6 elevators so the ratio improves...
