    Toronto Toronto | Garrison Point | 118.56m | 35s | Cityzen | Hariri Pontarini

    Depends on your definition of the sticks. This will essentially become an extension of Liberty Village, which is crazy as it is with more coming. We already eradicated every last centimetre of industry in what is now Liberty Village, I think its a shame to see Morgan Solar go too. But who needs...

    Toronto Toronto | Liberty Market Tower | 99.97m | 28s | Lifetime | Wallman Architects

    From the notices I've received in the mail, there is likely to be a new street at the very bottom of Liberty Village, running along the south sides of the buildings that are on the south side of East Liberty Street, running from Strachan to Dufferin...

    I think it is the west side where it meets Hanna. The application lists 2 addresses, 171 East Liberty and 37 Hanna.

    32 more storeys in Liberty Village. And not even on the outskirts near Strachan or something, right smack in the middle. And while we're at it let's tear down what brought a lot of people to Liberty in the first place, The Liberty Market building, who needs it? You've got to be kidding me.

    I agree. Being a king west resident I wish a ROW was already in place. Going east in the morning I routinely have to let a streetcar or 2 go by because its too full (and I get on at Strachan). When I'm lucky enough to get on one it is usually full by Bathurst or Portland and then it often can't...

    Toronto Toronto | Musée Condos | 53.95m | 17s | Plaza | BDP Quadrangle

    Hooray! More garbage for the west side of downtown! Why is it we get all the junk (Liberty Village, Cityplace, King Blue, M5V etc.) and the east side gets the interesting stuff (River City, Pier 27, Market Wharf, Berczy etc.) Of course I'm exaggerating here, hits and misses happen all over...

    Toronto Toronto | The Berczy | 41.76m | 13s | Concert | Arcadis

    I have a really good feeling about this one. I think it will turn out well. In hindsight I really wish I bought here, I remember the prices being pretty reasonable considering the location and relative exclusivity of a mid-rise, high end building. Unfortunately I was (still am) too much of a...

    Toronto Toronto | King Blue by Greenland | 155.75m | 48s | Greenland | Arcadis

    So me wishing some short term ill on myself for the beauty of the neighbourhood is immature, while you wishing ill upon nobody but me and me alone is...what? The adult thing to say? Take a hike buddy. It already worked once, a poorly priced and poorly slapped together development was cancelled...

    Toronto Toronto | King Blue by Greenland | 155.75m | 48s | Greenland | Arcadis

    What an absolute piece of garbage. I'm willing to sacrifice some of my property value (got a place nearby) for a couple years of a depressed condo market just to ensure this hideous excuse for a proposal doesn't get built. Look at that awful roof element! This is going to make the king of shitty...

    Toronto Toronto | King Portland Centre and Kingly Condos | 57.6m | 15s | Allied | Hariri Pontarini

    What's with all the love for RioCan? The RioCan I know is the one that tends to specialize in big box or near big box suburban power centres, not proper urban infill. Sure they have tons of big name anchor tenants at most of their developments, but I don't feel a Canadian Tire, Walmart, or Best...

    Toronto Toronto | King Blue by Greenland | 155.75m | 48s | Greenland | Arcadis

    I can't remember the last time I've seen such a stark difference between the podium and the tower. It looks like they may have actually taken some time to design the lower part of the project where it meets the street, and then ran out of time and just grabbed any older tower drawing that was...

    Are you serious? Any link to that info or proposed use for the site?

    Toronto 10 Ordnance Park | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | DTAH

    I'll admit it does have good bones and a ton of potential. But its not in the best shape, quite dirty looking with a bunch of dumpsters in front of it. The hideous pink paintjob they gave didn't help either. The south side is still the original brick, with remnants of whatever company's signage...

    Toronto Toronto | One O One | ?m | 26s | Camrost-Felcorp | Onespace

    What a shame. I wasn't aware of that 2nd tower until now. For what is considered to be an established neighbourhood by most, there's a fair bit of new construction between Yonge and the St. Clair West station area. This stretch of St. Clair always had a sort of Park Avenue feel to me. A fairly...

    Theatre Park should be right in front of the RBC Dexia building as it is pretty much directly north of it

    Being a resident of King and Strachan for about a year now, I can attest to the occasional smell. It's not always there, but you know when it is. Sometimes I think it's from the police horses down by the CNE, and for a while I thought it was coming from the 2 storey high pile of manure that was...

    For the love of God, please NO. Here's hoping this one receives the Tux treatment from buyers and gets shelved.
