    Is the tiny house with the guy inside for sale? I'd like to forward an offer of $1.5 million before anyone snatches it up.

    76-56=20 Where did I go wrong? Last mention of floor count that I saw was the walls for 56 were poured.

    This is the most nonsensical comment I've ever seen on this forum. Doesn't warrant explanation.

    Was this taken with a 1960s-vintage Kodak Brownie?

    IMHO, 90% of the complexity has already been dealt with. From here on in, the only thing new will be the very top.

    Like I said, some extrapolation was done. 2014 stats - 400k + just from subway traffic. BTW, it says it is by far the busiest station. https://transittoronto.ca/subway/stations/001-yonge-university-spadina-subway/bloor-yonge.shtml

    For what it's worth, I came across this partially extrapolated factoid: Roughly one million people cross the Yonge & Bloor intersection daily.

    I've lived in Canada for 67 years, and have never heard of Portage & Main. People outside of Toronto (or Ontario, or Canada) don't have to know of Y & B for it to be Canada's best known. How many people outside of ANY country do you think can name an intersection from another country? Aside from...

    The vast majority of people will never know the pitfalls of this project. They will gaze upon its splendour, completely oblivious pf the issues that befell it. It is not the first time a project went into receivership, nor will it be the last. If I never read another word about its financials...
