At least the art itself is nice to look at. That trash can ought to be moved elsewhere though.

Correct, though I believe the washrooms will remain unless that has changed recently.

Not only does the new exit go to College Park (entering it just south of the main elevator bank) it only goes to College Park, relying on the existing stairs, escalators and elevators in that building to reach the street as it doesn't have its own direct street access.

Is this the city's slowest demolition project? Photos from July 11.

Looks like there were nearby IGAs at 1012 Pape (in the former SDM location currently being demolished for Ontario Line) and 405 Donlands (now Select Bakery). Pape and Gamble Food Basics was originally a Dominion. Info is from this source: Toronto Historical Chain Locations (Groceteria.com)...

No, that portion of Thorncliffe Park Dr will be replaced with an extension of Leaside Park Dr that is now under construction to connect with the portion of Banigan Dr that will remain

It's the same process. You can report one of your cards as "lost" and transfer the balance to another active card on your account or an anonymous card. The "lost" card is then permanently cancelled. Here are the options when you start the process on the PRESTO website:

Not just much the same form, it appears to be the same report from 2024 with zero changes. What a waste of time indeed.

I feel like it's safe to say that the community along Pape has no idea that this realignment is coming. Saying this as someone in the area who found out about this on UT and not through any official communications. Its unfortunate as Tzakiki probably has the best patio of any business along...

Completely agree but I get the impression that Metrolinx avoided the east side properties at Cosburn because of the church at the southeast corner which provides several community services including a food bank, youth programs, etc...which may have been politically challenging to expropriate vs...

They are about a month behind this schedule on demolitions for Cosburn Station. Hoarding and sidewalk protection is only going up now.

They will be installing art on that concrete wall. Hopefully they cover all of the concrete with a nicer finish and not just install these art panels: From: https://www.ttc.ca/about-the-ttc/TTC-Public-Art-Program

Yep almost done. But to be clear, this is a replacement passenger pick up and drop off for when the existing one closes, not a commuter parking lot.

Here's the report with the curve wish list from 2010. Church and King is not on it. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that any of the recommended curves were installed when their respective intersections came up for reconstruction over the past decade...

The news release says "This Sat., Jan. 18 only, there will be no subway service on the portion of Line 1 Yonge-University between York Mills and St Clair stations to accommodate Metrolinx work on the Eglinton Crosstown LRT."...
