I was in the village with some time to waste and a book, just wondering, is there any place to sit down here? I looked, and actually left for queens park because there was Nowhere to rest my butt on. Unless I'm wrong, that's really messed up. For a community with strong ties to cruising and...

if it is rexall, they seem pretty comfortable completely redoing their facades lately. maybe they'll do that here ( I would!)

Yeah, microwaves are way too energy intensive to be queer. And there's all those reports of them zapping nutrients out of food. I'd replace it with slow cookers (for vegan stews) ;)

Compared to neighbourhoods like Cabbagetown or Queen West that were built to function without electricity, this development is a mean joke. using design, a house can keep cool and breezy during the summer without AC. In places like this, not only will everybody drive everywhere, but the crappy...

i love this! can i use this? (for personal, not professional reasons). I also think Quinoa and microwave should be removed from Queer, they have both fallen out of favour in the past little while.

There are a few tricks around going full nasty while biking. When you get your shirts from the cleaners, put half of them in your office, that way on hot days you can wear a t-shirt while commuting but switch when you get in. keeping your whole suit at work and changing there is ideal, but just...

It probably is, but I will actually appreciate the extra sidewalk space. Ossington has narrow sidewalks that make everyone walk like the girls in the Madeline story book. Lord knows what happens when two groups of two meet going opposite directions...

Its already 100x better and they haven't even built anything! Imagine how embarrassing it is now to be an architect who worked in the 60s and 70s.

those are bars, a club is different. Personally Im over my Fly phase, but it was always fun to know that at 4:30am you could get in there for 20 bucks and have a riot. The village isn't really declining, as much as its excluding and alienating certain demographics. mainly young people and...

Not at all surprised with the by accidental on purpose running out of time for the EA about sidewalk widening. Pedestrians in Toronto are 3rd class citizens, lower than someones leased honda they abandon in the public right of way, apparently.

Good to here. that corner is Bleak.

are they using the original facad? Don't want to sound like an old fart, but anything they build here WILL be worse than what we have now. We all know it.

Hi Mark! Welcome to Canada! From my understanding of what you wrote above, I think the best place for you to move would actually be in Toronto around Yonge between the 401 and Steeles. Finch and Yonge is a 7km drive from your place of work here, and the area offers a lot more than any area of...

Don't know about you, but I'd do just about anything to make it so commute home didn't begin with a steep pedal out of a parking garage... Even park outside and not shower!

In the last renovation of Dundas completed just about two years ago, the street trees were put in in a very unusual patter. Instead of being right beside the road, many of the significantly mature trees on the North side of Dundas between Bathurst and Ossington are planted right in the middle of...

No, this is the outside part between GO and TTC where you have to walk outside (but not for very much longer). the track is deeper and doesn't get sunlight.

There is a gigantic parking lot beside the current wobbly shaped building that is staying put. There is also a gigantic parking lot in the park that this is being built in. That's staying put, too. The municipality kicked out the community gardens and relocated them to mulock drive, which is...

Ew! So the gays are going to be eating crispy ceasar wraps at mcdonalds instead of renting cool videos and buying sexy bathing suites? Jeez Louise.

It looks nice, and will be an improvement to the area. Does anyone know what's going on with the school on Park Ave?

Do you mean the green building? i see there is another structure behind it (from google maps). Do you mean that you are building this west of the green building, or is it replacing it?
