    It's still standing. Make the developer restore the facade at least. If they can't find the cause/culprit, there is no way they can allow the developer to "benefit".

    $100 says it get lit up and put atop a building in Dundas Square

    Wealthsimple Stadium (Ad Company Geniuses, 0s, Août Poisson Architects)

    I'm a Millennial but had to google "eSports stadium". Just as I thought: it's a big arcade.

    Toronto Toronto | The Ivy | 110.33m | 34s | Tricon | Graziani + Corazza

    This is the exact situation where the City needs to just say no because this building is ugly. There is so much development here that the City should have leverage over developers. Why shut down the only gay dance bar left in the city to building something that is already excessive in Toronto...

    But more importantly, why is the pool-water at 1 Bloor E green? ?

    Toronto One6Nine Jones Townhomes | ?m | 4s | LCH | Open COMPLETE

    Oh, what a mess.... Are the ugly EIFS 2nd/3rd floor facades the result of value engineering or was this the plan the whole time?

    Even little fences around the base of each tree would do. Just need to keep the urine out of the critical root zone. I doubt you need to fence out to the boundary of the drip zone.

    Everything turns into a dog toilet. Follow the egress to any newish park, and the first tree available will be dead or dying. Guess why? I don't understand why the city doesn't protect trees from dog urine. Maybe put up decorative posts at the entries of all parks which can serve us an output...

    Church-Wellesley Village

    Fly is closing on June 30th. Apparently this time "for good", as the building is to be demolished for a condo (obviously). The Village loses its only proper dance club...

    I've been 3 times now. The food was always good, but the service is still a work-in-progress.

    Toronto Toronto | Massey Tower Condos | 206.95m | 60s | MOD Developments | Hariri Pontarini

    Looks great from the West. Looks pretty bad from the North. The North face looks like a different building, and not in a good way. Overall design is not coherent.

    Love it. How was the food?

    Because "development" is something that's lacking in Toronto...

    Might as well put up the next "For Lease" sign next to that one...

    PM Justin Trudeau's Canada

    @BurlOak Totally agree with you on Trudeau, but I'm wondering about your views on: - the concept of remediation/deferred prosecution agreements - how cozy governments are with big business - the obvious fact that Harper's government would have done the same as Trudeau's (but perhaps not got...

    Toronto Toronto | The One | 328.4m | 91s | Mizrahi Developments | Foster + Partners

    Because Clark is going to have a better idea of where the project is at since they are managing it. But in reality, because the Master Schedule is an integral contract document, no one is going to tell you what's really going on. You'll get a communications piece fed to you, which will make...

    You would have had extra maintenance fees to pay for 2X as many parking levels, so you need to compare it against that. Also, if excavation was expensive, the builder would have tried to recoup some of that extra cost from you via a higher sale price for your unit.

    Toronto Toronto | 321 Davenport | 36.4m | 9s | Alterra | Giannone Petricone

    It looks like the parking stackers were deleted and replaced with car elevators (which simply replace the drive-down ramps).

    I don't understand what you are saying. Please elaborate.
