    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    I agree with the sentiment, I think the issue is the marketing. If, as example, one visible minority under performs the average for high school graduation, one, I would hope, doesn't believe that's related to genetics. Nor is it likely related to racism at any scale, where teaching faculties...

    TTC: Streetcar Network

    Any number of threads could be suitable for this............but I'll park it here. On the agenda for the TTC next week is a report outlining ongoing and potential improvements to the streetcar and LRT networks focused on speed and reliability ...

    TTC: Major Operational Issues (Various)

    I don't see any sign of the Line 2 closure just at the moment, though there is another delay, this time at Main, due a trespasser on the tracks.

    TTC: Major Operational Issues (Various)

    The heads of that unit, direct, and executive need to be dismissed, immediately. Mistakes happen, but this major, this often is across the red line.

    Toronto Toronto | 111 Wenderly Drive | 46.5m | 13s | Honeycomb | Kohn

    You mean as a condo? The information you seek is generally posted above........but to add for clarity, there is no market for mid-market condos currently. Zero, None. So this is now proposed as rental for which there are government incentives and a market. Albeit, one that is not as...

    Eglinton East LRT | Metrolinx

    The current running capital estimate at an early design stage is 4.94B. However, that's if the project started tomorrow, more or less, which it won't. Its also with no tunnelling other than exiting Kennedy Station. The overall length (including Malvern) is ~18.6km (most of the route is known...

    Toronto Toronto | Burke Condominiums | 163.45m | 53s | Concert | Arcadis

    Ya know, I hate to say I don't like it............ but I don't. The more northerly buildings seem superficially restored well, but the brick looks (and probably is) painted. it looks too cartoon'ish. Meanwhile, the southern building 'Anson Jones House' did actually have the awkward...

    GO Transit: Service thread (including extensions)

    Thinking of it as a communication issue.........hmmm.

    Toronto Toronto | Atrium on Bay Expansion | 86.65m | 25s | KingSett Capital | Hariri Pontarini

    There's an LCBO, a flagship Muji, Marche Leo's (small supermarket, replaced Kitchen Table which was similar). Also Red Lobster. Once home to Pickle Barrel and the Olive Garden. Leo's seems to do ok'ish, but may be hurt by T&T opening across the way. LCBO usually does well, so does...

    Eglinton East LRT | Metrolinx

    I have a great deal of behind the scenes info.............but not all of it............and not always in real time... With that proviso, I am unaware, at this time of any senior government funds coming to this project any time soon. There are two major funding commitments likely in the next...
