It's hard to to tell from that thread if Rogers/Blue Jays screwed up or Ticketmaster. And he can't be the only one who bought those tickets... but he's certainly got the profile to bring attention to it.

Sounds like there are still some kinks being ironed out with the new accessible seating options...

The Jays website has one of those things where you can swipe and see before/after. Pretty fun! You can really see how huge the difference is down the lines. Oh, and there are multiple views...

This is a good point but I think it's a failing of the Provincial policy, not the TOC program. The Province passed MTSA policies and has left municipalities in the lurch ever since, effectively. They don't even need to do an MZO, just put in the Growth Plan (and/or PPS, depending what they're...

Ah. Yes. But now we're talking about the widely derided era of slum clearance. I'm not sure we want to try that again? The Ward was also expropriated, to give us City Hall and one could throw in Lincoln Centre in NY or Dodger Stadium in LA as examples of low income people being moved out for...

Again, I do take your point. But regent park isn't a perfect parallel. It was redeveloping what was already publicly owned housing. Redeveloping public housing is still different from taking freehold houses. I'm not saying it's not a model we should consider but it's not something we've done...

As a matter of principle, I agree. But I think we have to consider the mechanisms of how this works. Expropration law allows Metrolinx to take the land for the subway project and then IO is given the job of coming up with a development plan for it. What you are asking for would entail...

It's not just Fenway Park - the vast majority of ballparks were assymetrical until the modernist/multi-use stadiums of the 1970s and 1980s. Creating assymetry has been a hallmark of the neo-classical revival that started immediately after SkyDome was built. Beauty may be in the eye of the...

These are legit points but the TOC is only supposed to be IO's project on the limited lands needed for the subway. It's up to Toronto to determine what to do with rezoning the rest of the MTSA. IO's mandate is pretty limited in that respect and how aggressive the Province should be in upzoning...

Looks like there was a settlement and this one is now good to go. https://www.omb.gov.on.ca/e-decisions/OLT-22-004740-FEB-26-2024.pdf

Rest assured, your "lipstick on a pig position," is safely on record so don't feel obligated to keep restating it every time there's a new picture etc. As for the specifics of this comment.. Ok, dude. The corners look totally hugely different. The curvature of the 100 level is completely...

New pics. It's getting close... You can really see what it's going to look like now, especially the reduced foul territory.

This is your conclusion based on the quick-cut video which does not remotely show the final form of the renovation, which is still clearly weeks or months away. ...? Clearly seeing it in person is a lot to ask but should we wait until we've see an image of it all done first?

Yeah, that's likely some useless surplus land left over from the highway. It probably all factored in when they did the mzo and TOC deal.

Nice little update from the team today... https://bluejays.fanportal-mlb.com/ballpark-renovation/100-level-renovation?
