I can confirm that is NOT the Square One parking lot. Louroz

Temporary Parking Lot I can confirm its a new Tempoary Parking Lot. Louroz

Temporary Parking Lot Its a temporary parking lot until the city builds the new parking garage. I can confirm this is the most up to date rendering for the campus. Louroz

Media Wall and Stage I love everything except for that media wall and stage. It blocks the view of City Hall from the street and I'm pretty sure goes against the city's own City Centre District Plan. I would have liked to see a collapsible stage. Louroz

Spectaular Updated Designs Check it out: http://www5.mississauga.ca/isf/civic_square_overview.pdf It's going to be SPECTACULAR! Louroz

From Vision to Reality: The Birth of Mississauga's Downtown For those who are interested and free tonight (Tuesday - September 22) The Mississauga Heritage Foundation and the Mississauga Library is hosting a free lecture outlining the history of Mississauga's Downtown Core. Featuring Ron...

Downtown Mississauga I had an informal meeting Friday with a senior member of the project team for Downtown 21 and I believe once the official plan is released to the public you will all be blown away by what is being proposed. First off, two of the GTA’s major residential and commerical...

One 28 storey tower (phase 1), one 38 storey tower (phase 2) with 6 storey podium along Burnhamthorpe Road West, and 3 and 4 storey podiums along Grand Park Drive. http://www5.mississauga.ca/agendas/planning/2009/09_08_09/Item02HOZ08001W7Rpt.pdf Louroz

Olympic Countdown Amazing things when your city has the eyes of the world as Vancouver is experiencing with the 2010 Winter Olympics. Billions in from the provincial and federal dollars and an absolutely firm deadline will do the trick. 3rd Toronto Olympic Bid? If anything, I'm okay with...

I'll take those planters! It's a huge improvement to whatever else the city of Toronto does. Louroz

Buzz in Mississauga Yeah, I would have to strongly disagree with drum118. Just about everyone in Mississauga knows about these towers and there is a growing civic pride that it is going up in our city centre. There is even more buzz as it is really beginning to take shape. It will be a...

The Hotel is on HOLD for the time being. Louroz

Canada Square The last I asked about it, it was working its way through the process. It's def on the radar screen. I'm also pleased to see it formally listed as a project of Waterfront Toronto. I'll ask once again about timeline and will report back on anything. Louroz

Nuit Blanche 2009 + Russell Smith's Toronto-Haters Column http://www.scotiabanknuitblanche.ca/home.shtml 2009 Program Announced. I'm so pleased to learn that the budget for Nuit Blanche has risen to close to $2 million, and for the first time includes the provincial government with...

I don't believe we should be recreating an old town feel in the "warehouse" precinct either. It is totally out of character for the areas current and future purpose. If anything, I'm in favor of creating one unified look for the entire district. Louroz

Top of waterfall needs fixing and hours extended The top portion of the waterwall hasn't been turned on for a while. I also find the hours for the Conservatory to be extremely limited. I believe it closes at 2:00pm everyday? What gives? Louroz

I encourage people to pause and take some time to actually read the plan before jumping into wild conclusions: http://www.torontoentertainmentdistrict.ca/images/BIA_MstrPlan.pdf It was developed and driven by the business owners themselves with the support of the city. One striking...

Hto Park North Mmm, there was something magical about it being on the waterfront framed directly by the Rogers Centre and CN Tower lit up as the background. It just wouldn't have the same WOW factor at NPS square. I also believe its strategic on the part of Luminato and its government...
