    Toronto Toronto | YC Condos -- Yonge at College | 198.42m | 62s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    i think the market will be what "tempers" the development in the yonge corridor - not that demand will fall, just that infill spots in the eastern and southern downtown are plentiful and likely to come to market at the lower price points that we expect in the wake of the government's moves to...

    this is me, exactly. haven't even had a driving license since 2011, make way more money than i can spend, can't imagine living anywhere i couldn't easily walk to everywhere i want to get to. as far as toronto goes, there's literally nowhere to drive to, i can't think of anywhere i'd like to go...

    Toronto Toronto | Design Haus | 52.12m | 19s | Shiu Pong | Kirkor Architects

    seriously. and in addition to the loss of such a cool little building, you have the loss of 4 small retail spaces, to be replaced with 1-2 large ones. this is something that's happening all over north america, as small commercial spaces that work for entry-level and local businesses are...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    see, i would submit that demonstrating one's ability to master and adhere to an arbitrary convention of the written language actually suggests something opposite to what you're onto here. i work in tech here in san francisco and the culture is very much oriented toward dispensing with the...

    this is crazy, who cares? even at work people don't capitalize internal mails and that, it's just something that people don't really bother with anymore except in formal situations. how old are you, like 40? 50?

    Toronto Toronto | Ten York Street Condos | 224.02m | 65s | Tridel | Wallman Architects

    Toronto Toronto | Bloor Street Revitalization | ?m | ?s | Bloor-Yorkville BIA | architectsAlliance

    wow, looking great. i've always been shocked at how ugly bloor street was for a street so synonymous with luxury retail, and now it finally looks like it ought to. someone ought to do a long photo walk!

    a follow up on the bizarre late night jailhouse visit in march, not much new except that it has been the subject of discussion in the ministry. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/toronto/rob-ford-sought-meeting-with-inmate-in-after-hours-jail-visit/article13707729/ The visit was deemed unusual...

    Toronto Toronto | Tableau Condominiums | 124.05m | 36s | Urban Capital | Wallman Architects

    still another couple months until it hits ground level. man, really love this design aside from the strange forced integration of the heritage facade, obviously.

    Toronto Toronto | The Britt Condos | 142.03m | 41s | Lanterra | Arcadis

    well, the interior renovation looks nice and one has to love the addition of all that retail space, but this is by far the ugliest renovation i've ever seen. like it would be so much more interesting to cut in some more windows, bring the place up to modern energy and amenity standards, then...

    Toronto Toronto | Aura at College Park | 271.87m | 78s | Canderel | Graziani + Corazza

    wow, that's a real shame. like the classic, street-facing retail spaces are huge format massive corporations and the traditional yonge street type shops are in the little mall/arcade thing inside. i have this feeling like this will be an era in toronto planning that will prompt an enormous...

    well, it's not totally clear that they haven't visited the windsor road house, just that they didn't raid it full force. http://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2013/06/14/dixon_road_raids_help_complete_infamous_rob_ford_photo.html you have to wonder why they didn't head in there though, like seriously.

    15% would seem high to most middle aged folks, but recall that whatever numbers you've ever had are surely under-estimated, given the long-standing negativity on the whole gay thing with the older generations. and given your comment, i'm assuming you're quite old, so it's possible that you're...

    after years of lurking on the building boards and a couple weeks following this thread in particular, the above is the post that finally got me to register. i think this post is exactly correct, definitely the way that most cocaine users i know (and me, in my younger days) operate. you start...
