So we're creating a jog in Lake Shore? I'm not sure if I understand this Harbor Street extension. Harbor Street is not really a street, more like a name for a 400m portion of Lake Shore Blvd. I find it odd that we'd extend it and remove the existing connection to Lake Shore, and confusing that...

If the subway is built instead of an LRT, I think the Sheppard LRT might end up taking over the infrastructure for the RT from Midland to McCowan stations, extending it along the same route to Markham and Sheppard. This would give SCC a both north south and east-west rapid transit.

I usually consider Uptown: North York Centre.. Midtown: Yonge and St. Clair/Eglinton and Downtown: the official boundaries... However I do feel like we're trying to be something we're not when using some of these designations. Particularly Uptown, which historically belonged to Yonge and Bloor...

Nice infill. Not perfect, but acceptable. This thread is a little confusing, why put together two developments just because they're on the same land? (LCBO + Terracap).

Quick, someone email these intelligent thoughts to Adam Vaughan.

I always thought the St Clair ROW can head North on Scarlett and west on Dixon to the airport. It would be nice to see a busway on Steeles, Lawrence and WYME, and complete the Finch East LRT.

I'm happy this was an April fools joke after reading "the western section will be built in a later phase."

It's not only Yonge-Bloor that is at capacity in this city. The Western leg of the DRL is needed to relieve congestion due to new construction in the west end of the old city. The King and Queen car needs to be relieved as well. The entire portion south of Bloor needs to be the #1 priority. As...

His stupidity is thoroughly frustrating.

Oh, it will.

I think I'd rather a line parallel to Yonge than one directly underneath. One that runs from Bloor-Yonge, veers east to Church, heads south, then west to Union at Front staying on that angle from Church and to Southcore and eventually up Spadina to Bloor once the University line is overcapacity...

I live on St Clair and from my experience it's not the stop spacing, but rather the amount of time each vehicle remains at a stop that slows down the streetcars. One of the biggest causes of delay in my opinion is the fact that there are far too many streetcars on the route during rush that slow...

I don't think this is a lousy area at all... Eglinton West is an interesting neighbourhood, part of what makes Toronto as great as it is, comparable to Kensington, St Clair W, Junction.. It's unfortunate that this area will probably not retain it's unique cultural make up once the LRT is built...

Tbh I agree with your analysis. I feel like St. Clair would operate much more efficiently with longer vehicles and all door loading. I wouldn't take away any stops though.

Harvard? MIT? I'd like to know the % of people in those cities that have a college education much-less one from an Ivy League institution. Canada's post secondary system is open to a much wider demographic than those south of the border, and we're a better society for it. The amount of...

Talk about delusional. Size and GDP aren't the only things that determine the value of a city. New York certainly is a great city. It's an old city. And one day, Toronto will be in the same league. I can't wait to see our city mature, I think I prefer living in a city that has ambitious...

Suburban? What part of the project do you feel is suburban? They're removing the majority of the surface lots and building out Exhibition place from what currently is far more suburban than this, but the design is underwhelming. As for transit, there's already a GO train, with the 511, 509, and...

Ah, I understand what Big Daddy is saying, but I also empathize with AoD on the boxy hang up. I love Bay-Adelaide Centre. It's simple, it's beautiful and it incorporates historical structure(s). I think once the whole complex is done it will really add to the skyline. However, I do feel that if...

This is very true. Scarborough, North York are significantly denser than Mississauga (the densest 905 city), more than many believe. And this is reflected in transit ridership. The 116 Morningside, 96 Wilson, 95 York Mills, and 54 Lawrence East all have about the same or more riders than the 19...

I'm not a fan of One Bloor. I don't hate it, just not a fan. Other than the height, it seems pretentious. I like the proportions of the podium, but the tower looks like it will age very badly. It already looks dated to me. The design elements on the side are a tad cliché, probably because the...
