I take some issue with your use of the word "entitlement" here. It's fairly standard worldwide (& on sidewalks & roads too) to have a fast lane and a slow lane. Indeed, even busy staircases develop lanes. Not everyone who walks on an escalator thinks they are somehow better or in more need than...

I agree, but have an even more unlikely dream - that they cut the stores in half, so that one faces out & one faces in. No secondary entrances, just two smaller stores for every one larger one now.

That sounds nice. I'd also like them to reanimate the big blank block while they're at it, with more stores that have doors onto Yonge (and that are actually open as opposed to permanently locked).

I'm going to guess the Old Navy is becoming an Urban Planet or one of their cousins.

Why not? Saw similar set-ups in Tokyo when I lived in Japan. 🤷

Yes, this has come up on this thread before. I don't have a preference for either type of concourse really. Level-boarding would be nice though.

To each their own. I don't mind the old VIA concourse at all - I like the sense of history & how they've brought back the black metal trim around the side areas. I'd take faded 1920s glory over anything 1970s any day, so I'm happy they concentrated on updating Bay and adding to York rather than...

Yes, we need to bring this back! More freely available greenery in February would help with our collective mental health I think.

I would also like more vertical retail in Toronto, along with more options to dine on higher floors at non-exhorbitant price points.

Oh no! I hope you feel better soon!

I use the names! Everyone thinks differently. There are plenty of people who can never remember which one is considered Line 1 vs Line 2, so having a descriptive tagline (even if not quite accurate), is a nice way to account for at least two ways of thinking. Names rather than numbers are also...

It brings me joy too! 😊

Alternatively, you could introduce a different two-tiered toilet system - sitdown or squat at a 50/50 ratio. Squats are faster, unisex, and you don't have to touch anything so could be seen as cleaner, but of course they have the major caveat that they're ableist.

I love the Kibo though - reminds me of "ekiben" in Japan. And though I somewhat agree about the Source, it was very handy for grabbing headphones ahead of a 5hr stint on the train to Montreal when I'd forgotten mine.

Windows are easier to turn into doors than walls, so I thought maybe? I suppose it would also be possible (if unlikely) to lower just the east end so that the whole bridge is a ramp?

Thank you!

🤔 Is it possible they're still planning on lowering the deck to line up with the window on the west side & having a ramp down to the deck on the east? It seems they have some room to do that, even though the supports look done. Also, I always thought the green thing crossing the street was a...

I really hope some or all buildings bring them back!

That's awesome! 🎊 Congratulations Johnny!

In my opinion, yes, but it seems lots on this forum have different opinions. Actually, there used to be a charge to enter the entire grounds, (that was the $20 you remember) but now the water park & spa fee will only apply if you want to go inside. So you'll be able to walk all around, access...
